Tips
-
Use full-fat cream cheese for a richer texture.
-
Make sure the cream cheese is softened before mixing to avoid lumps.
-
Pat the strawberries dry before adding them so excess moisture doesn’t thin the dessert.
-
For a stronger red-and-white presentation, layer the strawberries and cream mixture in individual glasses.
-
Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
Storage
Store covered in the refrigerator and enjoy within 2–3 days for the best texture and freshness.
