Ingredients

Scale

Cheesecake Filling

8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped to stiff peaks

Strawberry Filling

1 cup fresh strawberries, diced
2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Shortcake Crumb

1 1/2 cups crushed shortbread cookies or graham crackers
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

Others

6 large crepes or thin cake layers

Instructions

Prepare the cheesecake filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with 1/4 cup granulated sugar and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the whipped heavy cream to keep the filling light and fluffy.
Make the strawberry filling: Toss the diced fresh strawberries with 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and let sit for 10 minutes to draw out natural juices and sweeten the fruit.
Create the shortcake crumb: In a bowl, combine the crushed shortbread cookies or graham crackers with the melted unsalted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and can hold together when pressed.
Assemble the rolls: Lay out a crepe on a flat surface. Spread an even layer of the cheesecake filling over the crepe, followed by a sprinkling of the shortcake crumb and some of the sugared strawberries. Carefully roll up the crepe tightly from one end to the other.
Chill and serve: Wrap each roll tightly in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least one hour to set. Once chilled, slice each roll into 1-inch pieces and serve chilled for a fresh and creamy dessert experience.

Notes

For best results, use fresh, ripe strawberries to ensure maximum sweetness and flavor.
Shortbread cookies add a buttery crunch, but graham crackers are a great substitute if unavailable.
If crepes are not available, very thin cake layers or pancakes can be used as an alternative.
Ensure cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the cheesecake filling.
The rolls can be prepared a day ahead and stored wrapped in the refrigerator overnight for convenience.
