Description
Fried Strawberry Cheesecake Sandwiches are an indulgent dessert made by layering creamy cheesecake filling and fresh strawberries between slices of bread, then frying to golden perfection. Crispy on the outside and rich inside, they’re an irresistible sweet treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 slices of white sandwich bread, crusts removed
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh strawberries
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Butter or oil, for frying
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Flatten each slice of bread with a rolling pin to make it easier to roll or seal.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture on 4 slices of bread and top with chopped strawberries. Cover with the remaining slices to make sandwiches.
- Press the edges to seal or use a fork to crimp them shut.
- In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg with milk.
- Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, coating both sides.
- Heat butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat and fry the sandwiches for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
- Mix granulated sugar and cinnamon in a separate bowl. Once fried, immediately coat the sandwiches in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Let cool slightly, slice, and serve warm.
Notes
- Use brioche or Texas toast for extra richness.
- Try using strawberry jam or preserves if fresh berries aren’t available.
- You can air-fry instead of pan-fry for a lighter option.
