Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of an 8-inch pie dish and place it in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.
Making the Filling
- In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a mixer until it’s smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add the milk, continuing to beat until fully incorporated.
- Sprinkle the sugar-free pudding mix over the cream cheese mixture and beat until the filling is thick and creamy.
Layering and Chilling
- Spoon half of the cheesecake filling into the chilled crust and layer half of the sliced strawberries over the cheese filling.
- Repeat this step with the remaining filling and strawberries.
- Place the cheesecake back in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 1 hour before serving.
Serving
- When ready to serve, cut the cheesecake into generous slices, ensuring to include strawberries in each piece.
- Garnish each slice with a dollop of whipped cream or cinnamon, if desired.
- Consider serving on a chilled plate or with a scoop of sugar-free vanilla ice cream.
Notes
You can swap out strawberries for blueberries or raspberries for variation. For a dairy-free option, use a plant-based cream cheese alternative and non-dairy milk. For a gluten-free crust, replace graham crackers with almond flour or crushed nuts.
