Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
- 1.5 cups powdered sugar
- 0.25 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons strawberry gelatin powder
- 2 drops red or pink food coloring (optional)
- 1 cup whipped cream (optional, for topping)
- 2 tablespoons sprinkles (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until well combined.
Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom of an 8x8-inch square baking pan to form the crust. Place the pan in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the heavy cream and strawberry gelatin powder to the cream cheese mixture. Mix until fully combined and the color is uniform. If desired, add 2 drops of red or pink food coloring for a more vibrant hue.
Spread the pink cream cheese mixture evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust, smoothing it out with a spatula.
Refrigerate the pan for at least 3 hours, or until the filling is set and firm.
Once set, slice the dessert into 16 squares. Top each square with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of colorful sprinkles, if desired.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
