Free-form Strawberry Cheesecake

Prep: 20 min. Powdered sugar dissolves almost instantly when stirred into berries, while granulated sugar needs stand time. We chose powdered for this quick-to-put-together recipe.

Yield: Makes 6 servings

Ingredients

• 2  cups  fresh strawberries, sliced
• 4  tablespoons  powdered sugar, divided
• 1 1/2  cups  ready-to-eat cheesecake filling

• 1  tablespoon  lime juice
• 6  crisp gourmet cookies, crumbled
• Garnishes: crisp gourmet cookies, lime slices

Preparation

1. Stir together strawberries and 2 Tbsp. powdered sugar.

2. Stir together cheesecake filling, lime zest, lime juice, and remaining 2 Tbsp. powdered sugar.

3. Spoon cheesecake mixture into 6 (6-oz.) glasses or ramekins. Sprinkle with crumbled cookies. Top with strawberries. Garnish, if desired. Serve immediately.
