Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 boxes cream cheese
- 1 package graham crackers
- 2 cups fresh strawberries
Supporting Ingredients:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup whipped cream or Cool Whip
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon (5 milliliters) vanilla extract
Instructions
- Craft a sturdy foundation by arranging graham cracker sheets in a single, neat layer across the bottom of a rectangular dish.
- In a large mixing bowl, whip cream cheese until velvety, gradually incorporating powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Gently fold in airy whipped cream until the mixture achieves a silky, uniform consistency.
- Delicately spread a generous portion of the cream cheese blend over the graham cracker base, ensuring an even, smooth coverage that reaches the edges of the pan.
- Carefully arrange vibrant, thinly sliced strawberries atop the cream cheese layer, creating a colorful and appetizing pattern that completely covers the previous layer.
- Repeat the layering process, alternating between graham crackers, cream cheese mixture, and fresh strawberry slices, building height and complexity with each successive stratum.
- Complete the dessert with a final artful arrangement of strawberry slices, creating a visually appealing top layer that hints at the delicious interior.
- Refrigerate the assembled dessert for a minimum of two hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the layers to set firmly, transforming the individual components into a cohesive, chilled delicacy.
- Before serving, remove from the refrigerator and slice carefully to showcase the beautiful layered texture of this elegant strawberry cheesecake lasagna.
Notes
- Crumble graham crackers uniformly to ensure a consistent, stable base that doesn’t crumble when serving.
- Use room temperature cream cheese for smoother, lump-free mixing that blends seamlessly with other ingredients.
- Fresh strawberries work best when patted dry to prevent excess moisture from making the dessert soggy and compromising texture.
- For a gluten-free version, swap graham crackers with almond flour or gluten-free cookie crumbs to accommodate dietary restrictions.
