Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz (226 g) cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup (240 ml) whipped topping (e.g., Cool Whip or homemade whipped cream)
- 14 oz (396 g) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup (about 8 sheets) graham crackers, crushed
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
- ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts
- Optional: mini chocolate chips or toffee bits
Instructions
- Let the cream cheese sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes to soften.
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with sweetened condensed milk using an electric mixer on medium speed for 2–3 minutes until smooth and creamy.
- Stir in vanilla extract until just combined.
- Gently fold whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula, keeping it light and airy.
- Crush graham crackers until fine but still a bit chunky. Chop strawberries and nuts.
- Gently fold graham crackers, strawberries, and nuts into the cheesecake mixture, reserving some for topping if desired.
- Spoon the mixture into a serving dish or individual cups. Smooth the top and sprinkle reserved mix-ins or optional chocolate chips/toffee bits.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to let flavors meld and texture set.
Notes
Softening the cream cheese is key to avoid lumps. Use gentle folding to keep the mixture airy. Chill at least 1 hour for best texture and flavor. For dairy-free, use vegan cream cheese, coconut whipped topping, and sweetened condensed coconut milk. For gluten-free, use gluten-free graham crackers or substitute with crushed nuts.
