A fresh Strawberry Cheesecake recipe made with real strawberries - a perfect no bake summer dessert that kids can help make

Total Time: 15 Minutes, Servings: 4-6 Servings

Ingredients :

• 1 lb fresh strawberries
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 sleeve graham crackers or 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
• two 8-ounce blocks cream cheese softened
• 14- ounce can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla paste or vanilla extract

Instructions :

• Remove and discard the stems from the strawberries, then cut the strawberries into bite-sized pieces. Place in a bowl with the sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Stir well to combine, then let this sit for 15 minutes.
• In the meantime, place the graham crackers into a food processor, and pulse until ground into fine crumbs. If you don’t have a food processor, you can crush the graham crackers with a rolling pin instead.
• Combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a bowl, and stir until the crumbs are moistened. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, whip together the cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla paste with a hand mixer, for about a minute on medium high speed, until the mixture is smooth and combined.
• To assemble the cheesecake parfaits, place a few spoonfuls of the cheesecake mixture into the bottom of a glass. Next add a layer of the buttery graham cracker crumbs. Top that with a layer of the macerated strawberries, then repeat with one more of each layer. Chill the parfaits for about an hour in the refrigerator before serving, and enjoy!
