Easy Strawberry Cheesecake Trifle

This trifle features layers of fluffy cheesecake filling, fresh strawberries, and crumbled cake, all beautifully presented in a glass dish. The recipe takes about 30 minutes to prepare and serves 6-8 people.

Ingredients

• 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
• 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust: In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix until well combined and press into the bottom of a trifle dish or individual cups.
2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
3. Whip the Cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream with granulated sugar until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until smooth.
4. Assemble the Trifle: Start by layering half of the cheesecake filling over the crust, followed by half of the sliced strawberries. Repeat the layers with the remaining cheesecake filling and strawberries.
5. Chill and Serve: Cover the trifle and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled, garnished with additional strawberries if desired.
