Strawberry shortcake has always been a favorite dessert of ours. But to take up up another level combine a creamy no-bake cheesecake, strawberries, and shortcake in one dish. The flavors are just incredible!!
This cheesecake has a shortcake layer that is baked. The cheesecake part is a no-bake style that is easy to make. You can serve the cheesecake with fresh berries or you can garnish it with whipped cream and a glaze with berries. Either way it is delicious!!
The creaminess of this no-bake cheesecake is a blend of cream cheese and cottage cheese. Cottage cheese is blended smooth with other ingredients. This addition adds more protien to the cheesecake layer and you cannot taste a difference.
