This Strawberry Cheesecake Salad is a rich and creamy dessert-inspired salad that’s quick to prepare and perfect for summer gatherings. Combining sweetened cream cheese, whipped heavy cream, and fresh chopped strawberries, this no-cook recipe delivers indulgent cheesecake flavor with the refreshing taste of berries in a light, fluffy form.

Ingredients

Scale

Cheesecake Mixture

  • 8 ounces cream cheese (1 block), softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Whipped Cream

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

Fruit

  • 2 lbs fresh strawberries, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cream cheese mixture: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy with no lumps.
  2. Whip the cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream using a hand mixer or stand mixer until soft peaks form, meaning the cream holds shape but is still light and fluffy.
  3. Combine the mixtures: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Use a low mixer speed or a spatula to combine, preserving the airiness of the whipped cream and achieving a light, fluffy texture.
  4. Add the strawberries: Fold the chopped fresh strawberries into the cheesecake mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout without breaking them down too much.
  5. Serve: The salad is best served immediately to enjoy the fresh, creamy texture, but it can be chilled briefly if desired.

Notes

  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature to avoid lumps.
  • Do not overwhip the heavy cream to prevent it from turning into butter.
  • This recipe is best enjoyed fresh; the salad might become watery if left too long.
  • Can be easily doubled or halved depending on serving needs.
