Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 3 cups Powdered sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 1.5 cups Fresh strawberries (sliced)
- 1 cup Fresh blueberries
- 1 cup Fresh raspberries
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9x9-inch baking dish to form the crust. Place in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beating until fully incorporated and smooth.
In a separate large bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
Spread an even layer of the cream mixture over the chilled graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Arrange the sliced strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries on top of the cream layer in decorative red, white, and blue patterns.
Refrigerate the dessert for at least 2 hours to set before serving.
Slice into squares, serve, and enjoy your Red, White, and Blue Dessert!
