Ingredients
3.4 ounces cheesecake flavored instant pudding mix
1½ cups whole milk (cold)
8 ounces thawed whipped topping
14.4 ounces graham crackers
1 pound fresh strawberries, washed, hulled, and sliced
16 ounces store-bought strawberry frosting
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the cheesecake pudding mix and cold milk until thickened (about 2 minutes).
-
Gently fold in the whipped topping until fully combined.
-
In a 9×13-inch dish, lay a single layer of graham crackers on the bottom.
-
Spread half of the pudding mixture over the graham crackers.
-
Add a layer of sliced strawberries on top of the pudding.
-
Repeat with another layer of graham crackers, the remaining pudding mixture, and more strawberries.
-
Finish with a final layer of graham crackers.
-
Microwave the strawberry frosting (after removing all metal) for 10–15 seconds to make it pourable.
-
Pour and spread the frosting over the top layer of graham crackers.
-
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.
Notes
Use very cold milk to help the pudding set properly.
For best results, slice strawberries evenly for smooth layering.
If preferred, scoop frosting into a microwave-safe bowl before heating.
This dessert is best chilled overnight for the perfect cake-like texture.
