Key Ingredients

With just a few simple ingredients and a package of Oreo cookies you can make this strawberry parfait recipe in minutes.

• Oreo Cookies - Crush 1 cookie (with the cream filling) per cup.
• Cream Cheese - One block of full fat cream cheese is enough to make 8 parfaits.
• Sugar - Sweetens the no bake cheesecake.
• Fresh Strawberries - Ripe berries give it a great strawberry flavor.
• Unflavored Gelatin - Thickens the cheesecake filling and gives it a light mousse texture.
• Strawberry Pie Filling - A canned pie filling or homemade strawberry pie filling works for the fruit topping.
• Extra Toppings - We love adding a swirl of homemade whipped topping, sprinkles, and mini cookies for a fun touch.

How to Make Strawberry Cheesecake Parfaits

These strawberry parfaits are an easy dessert to make. Just layer crushed cookies, no bake cheesecake, and strawberry pie filling in clear plastic cups or mini Mason jars.

1. Crush the Oreo cookies. Place 8 cream filled sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse. Divide the crumbs evenly into the bottom of 8 small cups.
2. Make the filling. Beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until light and creamy.
3. Puree the strawberries. Chop the fresh berries and pulse in a food processor until pureed. Add the hot water and gelatin packet and mix again. Pour into the cream cheese mixture and beat everything until smooth.
4. Assemble the parfaits. Spoon the strawberry cheesecake evenly into the clear cups. Top with spoonfuls of strawberry pie filling.
5. Add fun toppings. Use a piping bag and icing tip 1M to add swirls of whipped cream to the top of each one. Garnish with sprinkles and mini cookies.

Storage Recommendations

Place the un-decorated no bake strawberry mousse cheesecakes in a container with a lid or cover each one tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate 1-2 days. Add the toppings right before serving.

Tips and Tricks

• Set the cream cheese out ahead of time, so it is easier to beat into a creamy filling.
• A food processor is the best way to crush the cookies into fine crumbs.
• Use a piping bag to add the cheesecake filling to the clear parfait cups cleanly. A ziplock baggie would work too. Spoon the filling into a large bag and cut one corner off, so you can squeeze it in easily.
• If you are taking these no bake strawberry cheesecake parfaits to a party, wait to add the toppings until you get there. Add a lid or cover with plastic wrap, so they travel well. When you get to your destination, add the toppings.
