Ingredients

Units Scale

Graham Crust

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup butter (melted)
  • 2 tbsp sugar

Cheesecake Filling

  • 4 cups cold milk
  • 2 packages instant cheesecake or vanilla pudding mix (about 3.4 oz each)
  • 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • 8 oz whipped topping (such as Cool Whip, thawed)

Topping

  • 1 can strawberry pie filling (about 21 oz)
  • fresh strawberries (for topping)
  • whipped cream (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Make the Crust: Stir the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar together until like wet sand. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9×13 dish (reserve a handful for topping if you like). Chill while you make the filling.
  2. Make the Pudding Base: Whisk the instant pudding into the cold milk and let sit a couple of minutes until it thickens.
  3. Add the Cream Cheese: Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth, then beat in the thickened pudding a little at a time until lump-free. Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping.
  4. Layer: Spread the filling evenly over the chilled crust. Spoon the strawberry pie filling over the top and swirl gently, leaving some streaks. Scatter any reserved crumbs over the top.
  5. Chill: Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours, or overnight, until fully set.
  6. Serve: Just before serving, top with whipped cream and fresh strawberries.

Notes

Use cold milk so the instant pudding sets properly, and soften the cream cheese fully so the filling is not lumpy. Press the crust firmly so it holds when served. The dessert needs at least 4 hours (ideally overnight) to set; add whipped cream and fresh berries close to serving. Keeps covered in the fridge 3 to 4 days, though the crust softens over time. Does not freeze well. Other pie fillings (cherry, blueberry, mixed berry) work in place of strawberry.
