👩🍳 Instructions
Prep the Strawberries
Wash, hull, and slice strawberries into thin rounds. Set aside.
Line the Pan
In a 13x9 inch baking dish, place a single layer of graham crackers across the bottom. You may need to break some to fit.
Make the Cream Cheese Filling
In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk together until smooth and lump-free.
Add the pudding mixes and milk, then beat on low speed for 4–5 minutes, or until thickened.
Gently fold in 2 cups of whipped topping until fully combined.
Layer the Dessert
First layer: Pour half the cream cheese mixture over the graham crackers.
Second layer: Add a single layer of sliced strawberries.
Third layer: Add another layer of graham crackers.
Fourth layer: Spread the remaining cream cheese mixture.
Top with more sliced strawberries.
Chill
Cover the dish with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for 6–8 hours, or overnight. This allows the graham crackers to soften and the flavors to meld beautifully.
Finish & Serve
Just before serving, spread the remaining whipped topping across the top. If desired, sprinkle crushed graham crackers over for a little crunch.
🔁 Variations & Tips
Berry Swap: Try using blueberries, raspberries, or a mixed berry medley.
Make it Lighter: Use low-fat cream cheese and light whipped topping.
Add Texture: A sprinkle of chopped nuts like almonds or pecans adds crunch.
Freeze it: For an ice cream cake vibe, freeze the dessert for 2–3 hours, then let it sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes before slicing.
