Name: Strawberry Delight
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 10 min
Total time: 30 min
Ingredients: 1 package Sugar Cookie Mix and the ingredients needed per package. (I used Krusteaz, Butter Vanilla Sugar Cookie); 1 cup heavy whipping cream; 1 7.5 ounce container Strawberry Cream Cheese; 1/4 cup sugar; 1 3.4 ounce White Chocolate Pudding and the milk to make the pudding; 1 8 ounce tub Cool Whip (thawed)

Strawberry Delight recipe with layers of white chocolate pudding, strawberry cream cheese mousse, and whipped topping with a sugar cookie crust.

I wasn’t sure what to call this recipe. I went back and forth on Strawberry Delight and Strawberry Cheesecake Lush. I settled on Strawberry Delight since my inspiration came from my Pistachio Delight recipe. Call it what you want! It is cold creamy and dreamy! I do love my pudding desserts.

The Layers

Let’s break down this Strawberry Delight Dessert Recipe.

Layer 1: Sugar Cookie Crust.
Layer 2: Strawberry Cream Cheese Mousse.
Layer 3: White Chocolate Instant Pudding
Layer 4: Whipped Topping
Layer 5: Cookie Crumbs.

Layer 1 is the sugar cookie crust. The crust is delicious but because this is a refrigerated dessert it can be tough to cut. Use a sharp knife when slicing this dessert.
Layer 2 is the strawberry cheesecake mousse filling. Strawberry cream cheese is whipped and then whipped cream is folded into it. The mousse is light and airy.
Layer 3 is the white chocolate pudding. For whatever reason finding Jell-O white chocolate pudding has always been hit or miss at the stores for me. If you can’t find it you can swap it out for vanilla pudding.

Layer 4 I used Cool Whip. It is lighter than whipped cream and I didn’t want this dessert to be heavy. You can certainly use whipped cream instead of the Cool Whip.
Layer 5 is sugar cookie crumbs. When making the crust you will set aside some of the cookie crumbs for the top. I added these crumbs back to the blender/food processor for a finer consistency.

This Strawberry Delight Dessert is perfect for Spring Potlucks and Easter.
