How many servings does this make I’m trying this tomorrow
10 – 12 servings
The picture makes it look super gross, but it is really REALLY GOOD!
I am glad you enjoyed the recipe!
Do you add the package of
The graham cracker crust?
No graham cracker crust in this recipe. This salad is like a fruit salad.
I LOVE this recipe!! The only thing I change is the yogurt. I use strawberry yogurt because of my kids. It never last longer than the day I make it!!
Absolutely LOVE this salad, I make it for every special occasion, and for just snacking on at home! Best recipe everrrrr!(:
I made this for a picnic and was asked to do it again this year but to double the recipe. It was great and a big hit
I have made this many times and it’s a hit. Ihave tweaked it a bit over time and use strawberry flavored Greek yogurt instead of vanilla, omit the sliced strawberries(less expensive and tastes great), and actually do make the Graham cracker crust per directions in the bottom of 9×13 cake pan and spread salad into it. Chill and spoon it out. It’s delicious and no waste on the Graham crackers.
Do you mix the cheesecake like the box says than stir in or just put the powder with other ingredients?
Do you use fresh strawberries and just slice them up? I made the mistake of buying frozen sliced strawberries! I KNOW PRETTY STUPID HUH? I’m pretty mad at myself..lol.i wasn’t thinking. I’ve never made this and wanted to make it for a cookout tomorrow and after i got home i relized i made a mistake!
Nevermind got the fresh strawberries!
Do you mix up the cheesecake filling first or just add the powder
Mix the 1st 4 ingredients together. The add the strawberries and bananas gently!
What answer did u get? I’m gonna be making this soon and I’d like to know this too. Do u mix the filling or add the powder?
You mix in the cheese cake powder. Some people like to sprinkle some of the graham crumbs on top of the dish for presentation.
Do you put the dry mix in or add ingredients it says on the box…theb leave the crust out
Do not add the ingredients listed on the box. The moisture from the yogurt and cool whip will wet the cheesecake powder.
i lovvvvvvvvvvvveee this recipe i am a good cook also but i make only pakistani food and i love this reipie
It seems dry. Should I have made the pudding first?
No! do not add milk to the pudding, The moisture from the yogurt and cool whip will make it moist enough. Give it some time, the juice off the strawberries will help as it sits.
Fresh strawberries is out of season how can you use frozen
Frozen strawberries will make it look mushy and very pinkish. I am not sure were you live, but try some of the bigger chain stores, Whole Food, Harris Teeter, Publix, Wegmans. Between Florida and California you should be able to get fresh strawberries year round, but they are limited.
You could thaw them in a strainer, that would take care of some of the extra liquid.
it’s my favorite
How many ounces of marshmallows do you use? Had to buy a large bag.
Delicious!!!
Do you fix the chessecake on the box or just mix up the powder
Just mix up the powder, the moisture from the yogurt and cool whip will moisten the cheesecake powder.
This is a hit every time I make it…I have even mixed the Graham crust and spread that in a pan, then added the strawberry mix, (i omitted the bananas and add in blueberries) refrigerate..it’s a hit that way too
Hey Dave..you can tweek this any way you want..my husband is a strawberry banana freak..so I made it as a filling and put it in a homemade prebaked crust..crunched up a few nillas to sprinkle on top covered and chilled for awhile..KIller!! I think you could use any crust..I’m going to start messing with alomnd flour!! By the way I usually make my pie dough with half butter and half shortening..all I had was coconut oil, I just chilled it like crisco and it turned out great. Anyway thanks for the recipe
I don’t do bananas. Didn’t like. I do with the sliced up strawberries, blueberries, and whole raspberries. One container of each.. So good.
Don’t make this EVER! This is all you will ever be asked to bring to get togethers LOLOL
SO YUMMY!
This recipe is so delicious. I’ve made it a few times..I also add grapes,pineapple chunks and maraschino cherries.
I bought the no bake cheesecake filling which is made by jello. It is not powder but is like cool whip or yogurt. Was that a mistake?
Yes, you will need the powder.
Do you need to mix the cheese cake with the ingredients it calls for on the box then put it in or just put the powder in?
Yes! just stir in the cheesecake powder with the other 3 ingredients on the recipe. Enjoy!
I have lost county how many times I have made this. As a matter of fact making it this weekend. I do however have learned to add more color and use the mini colored marshmallows to make it look more festive. I have also, made this with blueberries with the bananas and strawberries. My nieces and nephews no longer ask for gifts on their birthdays they want this for their birthdays and now with graduations just around the corner will you please make this for me instead. So thanks so much for this recipe.
Any suggestions on how to make it with the cheesecake filling instead of the powder…I accidentally bought the filling and not the powder
What brand of cheese cake filling do you buy. I can give you suggestions from there.
I have posted a recipe for fresh blueberry sauce on the website. ( just type in blueberries, (in search)). You can also just place washed and dried fresh berries on top. The dessert itself is sweet.
Yes you can use the dry powder in the JELLO cheesecake mix.
Yes! just add the dry cheese cake powder into the rest of the ingredients. You will not use the graham crackers.
I accidentally bought the jello cheesecake filling. Can this be substituted?
I have made this salad very delicious how long does it last. Also I’m wondering what would it be like if I added teddy Graham’s the cupcake flavor vanilla kind. I’d like to take it to church tonight I think it would be a hit. It’s very delicious
For me 2 days is the limit. Starts to get mushy after 2 days. If using the teddy grahams, I would not let it go more than on day if serving to guest.
How much do you think I would need for a party of about 20-30 people
