How to Make a Strawberry Cream Cheese Icebox Cake

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 23 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1 box graham crackers
  • Additional strawberries for garnish, if desired

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling:
    • In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
    • In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
    • Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
  2. Assemble the Cake:
    • In a 9×13 inch dish, lay down a layer of graham crackers, breaking them as necessary to cover the bottom.
    • Spread half of the cream cheese mixture over the graham crackers.
    • Arrange a layer of sliced strawberries over the cream cheese layer.
    • Repeat with another layer of graham crackers, the remaining cream cheese mixture, and another layer of strawberries.
  3. Chill:
    • Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the graham crackers to soften and the flavors to meld together.
  4. Serve:
    • Before serving, garnish the top with additional fresh strawberries if desired.
    • Cut into squares and serve cold.
