🧁 How to Make It

1. Build the Crust

Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish lightly with nonstick spray.
In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until combined and crumbly. Press half of the mixture into the bottom of your pan to form a firm base. Set the rest aside for the topping.

2. Make the Strawberry Purée

Blend the whole strawberries (2½ cups) in a food processor or blender until silky smooth. Set the purée aside for later.

3. Whip the Cream

In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form—start on low speed, then gradually increase to high (about 3–4 minutes). This gives your dessert a fluffy, mousse-like texture.

4. Prepare the Filling

In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth. Add the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, and the fresh strawberry purée. Beat again until the filling is fully combined and silky.

5. Combine and Layer

Gently fold the whipped cream into the strawberry-cream mixture until fully blended. Stir in the diced strawberries for added texture and fruitiness.

Spread the creamy filling over the graham cracker crust. Smooth the top evenly with a spatula.

6. Top and Freeze

Sprinkle the remaining graham cracker crumb mixture over the top of the dessert.
Place in the freezer for at least 4–6 hours, or overnight, until firm and sliceable.
