Ingredients

Scale

Graham Cracker Layer

  • 1 (14.4 oz) box graham crackers

Cheesecake Layer

  • 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 (8 oz) tub whipped topping (like Cool Whip)

Strawberry Layer

  • 4 cups fresh strawberries, sliced

Gelatin Topping

  • 1 (3 oz) package strawberry gelatin
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1/2 cup cold water

Instructions

  1. Prepare the gelatin: In a medium bowl, combine the strawberry gelatin powder with 1 cup boiling water and stir until fully dissolved. Add 1/2 cup cold water, stir well, then refrigerate for 30 minutes until the gelatin is slightly thickened but not completely set.
  2. Make the cheesecake mixture: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth and fluffy. Gently fold in the whipped topping until well combined, creating a light and creamy filling.
  3. Assemble the first layers: Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish. Add a layer of graham crackers on top, breaking pieces as needed to fit.
  4. Add filling and strawberries: Spread half of the remaining cheesecake mixture over the graham crackers. Top this with half of the sliced fresh strawberries, distributing them evenly.
  5. Repeat layers: Add another layer of graham crackers, followed by the remaining cream cheese mixture, and then the remaining sliced strawberries on top.
  6. Top with gelatin glaze: Carefully spoon the slightly thickened gelatin over the top layer of strawberries. Spread it gently and evenly to cover all the fruit.
  7. Chill and set: Refrigerate the assembled strawberry cheesecake lasagna for at least 4 hours, or until fully set and firm.
  8. Serve: Once set, slice into squares and serve chilled for a refreshing, creamy dessert.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, try using strawberry-flavored graham crackers or add a layer of strawberry jam for additional sweetness.
  • You can swap the store-bought whipped topping with homemade whipped cream for a fresher, less processed option.
  • This dessert is best enjoyed within 2–3 days of preparation for optimal freshness and texture.
