Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Oreo Crumble

Crush Oreos in a food processor or place in a ziplock bag and crush with a rolling pin.
Mix with melted butter until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Set aside for layering.

Step 2: Make the Cheesecake Filling

In a bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth.

In another bowl, whip cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fluffy and smooth.

Top with a spoonful of diced strawberries.
Repeat the layers if space allows.
Finish with a sprinkle of Oreo crumbs and a few more strawberries on top.

Step 5: Chill & Serve

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I use Cool Whip instead of heavy cream?

Yes! You can substitute with 2 cups of Cool Whip, but the texture may be slightly different-still delicious!

Can I make this in one big dish instead of cups?

Absolutely. Use a small trifle bowl or an 8×8 baking dish and layer as directed.

Can I use frozen strawberries?

Fresh is best, but you can use thawed frozen strawberries-just drain excess liquid before layering.
