Strawberry Cheesecake Lush Dessert Recipe
This Strawberry Cheesecake Lush Dessert is more than just a flavorful treat; it’s a feast for the eyes as well, making it an ideal choice for summer parties or a special family dessert.
Relish the combination of juicy strawberries with the rich, creamy cheesecake filling, all atop a buttery Golden Oreo crust.
Ingredients:
- 1 package of Golden Oreos, coarsely crushed
- 6 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 (3.4 oz) package instant cheesecake pudding mix
- 1 cup milk
- 1 (16 oz) tub Cool Whip, thawed
- 4 cups chopped strawberries, divided
Instructions:
Prepare the Pan: Grease an 8-inch or 9-inch square pan with cooking spray and set aside.
Make the Crust: In a large bowl, combine the crushed Golden Oreos with melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are fully coated, then press the mixture evenly into the prepared pan. Use the bottom of a glass to compact the crumbs.
Prepare the Filling: In a clean bowl, whisk the cheesecake pudding mix and milk for 1-2 minutes, until the mixture thickens. Gently fold in half of the Cool Whip (about 2 cups) and 2 cups of chopped strawberries.
Assemble the Dessert: Spread the creamy filling over the Oreo crust, then top with the remaining Cool Whip. Sprinkle the remaining chopped strawberries evenly across the top.
Chill and Set: Cover the dessert and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or ideally overnight, to allow it to set properly.
Enjoy this cool and creamy dessert at your next gathering!
