Name: Strawberry Cheesecake Fluff (Creamy No-Bake Dessert)
Ingredients: 8 oz cream cheese, softened; 1 cup powdered sugar; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1 (3.4 oz) box strawberry instant pudding mix; 1 cup cold milk; 8 oz whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed; 1 ½ cups fresh strawberries, diced; 1 cup crushed graham crackers or vanilla wafers

Ingredients

Scale

8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (3.4 oz) box strawberry instant pudding mix
1 cup cold milk
8 oz whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed
1 ½ cups fresh strawberries, diced

1 cup crushed graham crackers or vanilla wafers

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Cream Cheese Base

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Make sure there are no lumps, as this forms the base of the fluff.

Step 2: Sweeten and Flavor

Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Beat until fully combined and light in texture.

Step 3: Mix the Strawberry Pudding

In a separate bowl, whisk together the strawberry pudding mix and cold milk for about 2 minutes, until thickened. Let it sit briefly to fully set.

Step 4: Combine the Fluff

Add the prepared strawberry pudding to the cream cheese mixture and mix until smooth and evenly blended. Gently fold in the whipped topping until light and fluffy.

Step 5: Add Strawberries and Chill

Fold in diced strawberries and crushed graham crackers or vanilla wafers. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to blend.

Notes

Fully soften cream cheese for a smooth, lump-free fluff.
Fold gently to maintain a light, airy texture.
Chill before serving for best flavor and consistency.

Add cookie crumbs just before serving if you prefer crunch.
