Equipment
- 9-inch cake pan
- Mixing bowls
- Electric mixer or whisk
- Spatula
Ingredients
Graham Cracker Crust
- 1 ¾ cups honey flavored graham cracker crumbs
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon fine sea salt or ¼ teaspoon table salt
Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream Filling
- 2 cups frozen strawberries
- 1 cup fresh strawberries diced
- 16 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 quart vanilla ice cream softened
Instructions
How To Make The Crust:
- Start by mixing together the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar, and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Stir it all well until the crumbs are fully coated and stick together when you press them.
Form The Crust Base:
- Take the crumb mixture and press it firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch cake pan. Make sure the layer is even. Once that’s done, pop it into the freezer while you get the filling ready.
Prepare The Strawberry Cheesecake Filling:
- Blend the frozen strawberries until they’re nice and smooth. In a big bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until it’s creamy and lump free. Slowly add the softened vanilla ice cream and mix everything together well. Then gently fold in the pureed strawberries along with some chopped fresh strawberries.
Put It All Together:
- Pour the strawberry cheesecake mixture over your chilled crust and spread it out evenly with a spatula. Cover the pan with plastic wrap or foil.
Freeze And Serve:
- Put the whole cake in the freezer for at least 4 to 6 hours until it’s firm. When you’re ready to eat, take it out about 10 minutes beforehand so it softens a bit for easier slicing. Cut into slices and enjoy!
Notes
This Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream Cake Recipe requires planning ahead due to freezing time, so prepare it a day before your event. For easier slicing, run a knife under hot water before cutting each slice.
