Strawberry Shortcake Cheesecake Rolls are the ultimate no-bake dessert—featuring fluffy crepes filled with tangy cheesecake cream, macerated fresh strawberries, and buttery cookie crumbs. This easy, elegant treat is perfect for spring and summer gatherings, offering all the flavor of classic strawberry shortcake with a creamy cheesecake twist.

Ingredients

  • Cheesecake Filling:
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • Strawberry Layer:
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, diced
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • Cookie Crumb Layer:
  • 1 cup crushed shortbread cookies or graham crackers
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • Assembly:
  • 6–8 large crepes or thin cake layers (store-bought or homemade)
  • Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions

  1. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese with sugar and vanilla extract until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream to stiff peaks, then gently fold into the cream cheese mixture until light and fluffy.
  2. Macerate the Strawberries: Combine diced strawberries with sugar and let sit for 10 minutes to release juices.
  3. Make the Cookie Crumb Mixture: Combine crushed cookies and melted butter in a bowl until slightly cohesive.
  4. Assemble the Rolls: Lay out a crepe. Spread a layer of cheesecake filling, sprinkle cookie crumbs, and top with strawberries. Roll tightly into a log. Repeat with remaining crepes.
  5. Chill and Set: Wrap each roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  6. Slice and Serve: Slice into 1-inch rounds, dust with powdered sugar, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For best results, use room temperature cream cheese and fully chill rolls before slicing.
  • Use a sharp serrated knife for clean cuts.
  • Feel free to swap in other berries or gluten-free alternatives.
