Description

These strawberry cheesecake parfaits are so easy, you won’t believe it – no baking, just layering! And you can layer them with whatever toppings and fruit you like – even chocolate or caramel!

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Strawberries, Sliced
  • 2 Tablespoons Sugar, Divided
  • ½ cups Graham Cracker Crumbs
  • 2 Tablespoons Melted Butter
  • 12 ounces, weight Cream Cheese, Room Temperature
  • ½ cups Sour Cream
  • ⅔ cups Confectioners Sugar (Sifted)
  • 2 teaspoons Amaretto
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 4 sprigs Mint, For Garnish

Preparation

Sprinkle sliced strawberries with one tablespoon of sugar. Toss and set aside.

Mix the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter and the remaining one tablespoon of sugar.

Beat cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the sour cream, confectioners’ sugar and Amaretto and beat until combined.

In another bowl, whip the cream until stiff peaks form. Fold this into the cream cheese mixture.

Assemble Parfaits:

Place about a tablespoon of the graham cracker “crust” in the bottom of your glasses. Layer some of the cheesecake filling in the glasses, then some of the strawberry topping and sprinkle some more of the graham cracker on top. (Amounts will vary according to how many parfaits you are making, so just adjust accordingly). Repeat layers and top with mint.

Refrigerate until ready to serve.
