Indulge in a delightful and refreshing Cheesecake Fruit Salad that combines the creamy richness of cheesecake with a medley of fresh fruits, crunchy granola, and a luscious caramel sauce. This dessert is perfect for summer gatherings, potlucks, or simply a sweet treat at home.

Ingredients

Cheesecake Filling:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

Fruit Salad:

  • 2 cups strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 2 cups green apples, cored and diced
  • 1 cup red grapes, halved
  • 1 cup of granola or crushed graham crackers
  • 1 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a medium-sized bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue to beat until well combined. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture until smooth and fluffy.
  2. Prepare the Fruit: In a large bowl, combine the strawberries, green apples, and grapes. Gently toss to mix.
  3. Assemble the Fruit Salad: Spread a generous layer of the cheesecake filling over the fruit mixture and gently fold the filling into the fruit, making sure everything is coated evenly. Top with granola or crushed graham crackers for added texture and crunch. Drizzle with caramel sauce over the top for an indulgent, sweet finish.
  4. Serve: Chill the cheesecake fruit salad for about 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve chilled and enjoy the creamy, crunchy, and fruity dessert!
