Cheesecake Strawberry Rolls (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Rich Filling
01 -
Softened cream cheese, 8 oz
02 -
1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
03 -
1/4 cup white sugar
04 -
Heavy cream for whipping, 1 cup
→ Berry Layer
05 -
1 cup of diced fresh strawberries
06 -
2 tablespoons sugar crystals

Crushed graham crackers or shortbread cookies, 1 and 1/2 cups
08 -
Melted unsalted butter, 1/4 cup
09 -
6 thin cake sheets or crepes
10 -
Powdered sugar for sprinkling on top
# Instructions:
01 -
Blend the softened cream cheese with sugar and vanilla until it's silky and lump-free.
02 -
Whip heavy cream in another bowl until it holds stiff peaks. Carefully fold it into the cheese mixture until you get a smooth blend.
03 -
In a bowl, mix strawberries with sugar and let them rest for about 10 minutes so they release their juice.
04 -
Combine the crushed cookies with melted butter and mix until they feel like damp sand when pinched.
05 -
Spread cream, cookie crumbs, and juicy strawberries over each crepe. Roll them up tightly, like sushi, to form even cylinders.
06 -
Wrap each roll in plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least an hour. Slice into 1-inch pieces, then sprinkle powdered sugar on top before serving.
# Notes:
01 -
Keep the rolls cold for easier and neater slicing.
02 -
Either shortbread or graham crackers work for the crumb base.
