Shortcake Cheesecake Rolls (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Filling Essentials

01 - 1 cup heavy cream, whipped
02 - 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
03 - 1/4 cup white sugar
04 - 8 oz softened cream cheese

→ Fresh Strawberry Topping

05 - 2 tablespoons sugar, granulated
06 - 1 cup diced fresh strawberries

→ Layering Components

07 - Powdered sugar to sprinkle
08 - 6 thin cake sheets or crepes
09 - 1/4 cup melted butter, unsalted
10 - 1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers or shortbread cookies

# Instructions:

01 - Blend cream cheese with sugar and vanilla until creamy. Whip heavy cream separately until firm peaks, then blend lightly into the cheese mixture.
02 - Combine strawberries with granulated sugar, then let them sit for 10 minutes to soften and release their juices.
03 - Stir melted butter into crushed cookies until the mix feels like wet sand.
04 - On a crepe, spread the cheesecake mix, add crumbs, and then top with sugared strawberries. Roll it all tightly, sushi-style.
05 - Wrap each roll in plastic, chill for at least 1 hour, slice into 1-inch rounds, and sprinkle powdered sugar before enjoying.

# Notes:

01 - To get even slices, chill well before you cut.
02 - Either type of cookie—shortbread or graham—works for the crunchy element.
