    Author: Izzy

    Ingredients 

    • 15 sheets graham crackers 16 ounces
    • 1 1/2 cups milk add more if needed
    • 7 ounces vanilla instant pudding mix 2 small boxes
    • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
    • 3 cups whipped cream or whipped topping
    • 3 cups fresh strawberries chopped, plus 12-15 halved for topping
    • 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries optional

    Instructions 

    • Wash strawberries and pat dry with a paper towel. Chop them into small pieces
    • In a medium bowl, mix the instant pudding with softened cream cheese.
    • Add in milk and whisk until smooth.
    • Fold the whipped cream into the pudding mixture. Mix until thoroughly combined.
    • Grease a 13×9 inch dish and add a thin layer of pudding mixture onto the bottom.
    • Add a single layer of graham crackers on top. Break the cookie if needed to fit the dish.
    • Spread a 1/2″ thick layer of pudding mixture on top of the graham crackers to cover using a spatula.
    • Arrange 1/3 of the berries on top of the pudding layer.
    • Repeat the graham cracker / pudding mixture / strawberries layering two more times, finishing with the berries.
    • Cover the dish with plastic wrap and chill for at least 4 hours up to 2 days before serving. Enjoy!

    Notes

    • Make sure your cream cheese is softened before cooking.
    • Don’t cut into the cake right after you assemble it, as it needs to sit in the fridge for at least 4 hours to firm up.
    • You can place it in the freezer for 30 minutes before serving and it’ll keep the shape even better.
