No-Bake Strawberry Cream Cheese Cake

This icebox cake features layers of graham crackers, a rich cream cheese filling, and fresh strawberries. It takes about 20 minutes to prepare and needs to chill for at least 4 hours before serving, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.

Ingredients

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 package (14 oz) graham crackers
Additional strawberries for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
Whip the Cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
Layer the Cake: In a 9×13 inch dish, spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture on the bottom. Place a layer of graham crackers over the cream, followed by a layer of sliced strawberries. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cream on top.
Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld and the cake to set.
Serve: Once chilled, slice the cake and garnish with additional strawberries if desired. Serve cold.
