Description
Strawberry Crunch Cheesecake is an easy no bake dessert featuring creamy cheesecake layers, a buttery Golden Oreo crust, and a nostalgic strawberry shortcake crumble topping. Perfect for parties or family gatherings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 24 Golden Oreo cookies
- 4 tablespoons salted butter, melted
- 24 ounces cream cheese (3 packages, room temperature)
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, puréed
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1½ cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 batch strawberry shortcake crumble
Instructions
- Crush Golden Oreos in a food processor or in a Ziploc bag with a rolling pin until fine crumbs form.
- Add melted butter to the crumbs and mix until fully combined.
- Spray a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray, then press the crust mixture evenly across the bottom and about one inch up the sides. Freeze while preparing the filling.
- In a large bowl, combine softened cream cheese, vanilla, lemon juice, and powdered sugar. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
- In a separate chilled bowl, whip heavy whipping cream with a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture to create a light and airy filling.
- Divide the filling in half. Set one half aside and fold puréed strawberries into the other half until fully incorporated.
- Pour the strawberry filling into the chilled crust and smooth the surface. Layer the plain filling on top and spread evenly.
- Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4-5 hours or overnight until firm.
- Remove the cheesecake from the freezer and carefully release it from the springform pan. Coat the top and sides with strawberry shortcake crumble.
- Return to freezer until ready to serve. Before slicing, allow to thaw for 10-15 minutes for easier cutting.
Notes
- Use room temperature cream cheese for a smoother filling.
- Chill the mixing bowl and beaters before whipping the cream for best results.
- Store leftover cheesecake in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
- Add fresh strawberries or whipped cream garnish just before serving for extra flair.
