How to make Cheesecake Salad
Step 1: Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
Step 2: In a separate bowl, make the homemade whipped cream.
Beat the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Mix in the vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 3: Fold the cream cheese mixture into the heavy cream to make the cheesecake mixture.
Step 4: Wash and pat dry the fruit.
Cut the strawberries into slices, but leave the rest of the fruit whole.
Step 5: Stir the fruit gently into the whipped cream cheese mixture and serve chilled.
I love eating this for dessert and the creamy filling is so delicious paired with the fresh berries.
I suggest serving this right away for the best flavor, or making it just a few hours ahead.
How to store
If you think you will have leftovers, I would suggest storing the cheesecake filling separately from the fresh fruit.
Once it’s time to serve, pat the fruit dry and fold it into the filling.
This will help the fruit not get mushy.
I was never a fan of a lot of my Grandma’s creamy fruit salad recipes, but this cheesecake salad is one exception!
I can’t say no to cheesecake flavors and this really hit my sweet tooth just right. You have to try it!
More recipes to try
We especially love this dessert in the summertime, but I will make it any time of year I can get my hands on fresh berries.
Give this a try at your next party or gathering!
