Cheesecake Fruit Salad with Caramel Drizzle
A delightful combination of fresh fruit, crunchy graham cracker crumble, and luscious caramel sauce—this cheesecake-inspired fruit salad is the perfect sweet treat for any occasion!
Ingredients:
2 cups strawberries, hulled and halved
2 cups green apples, cored and diced
1 cup red grapes, halved
1 cup granola or crushed graham crackers
1 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
For the Cheesecake Filling:
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
¼ cup powdered sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup whipped topping (or homemade whipped cream)
Directions:
Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Fold in the whipped topping until well combined.
Assemble the Fruit Salad: In a large mixing bowl, gently toss the strawberries, green apples, and red grapes.
Layer the Salad: Spread half of the fruit mixture into a serving dish or aluminum pan. Spoon half of the cheesecake filling over the fruit. Repeat with the remaining fruit and cheesecake filling, gently spreading the filling to cover.
Add the Toppings: Sprinkle granola or crushed graham crackers evenly over the top. Drizzle generously with caramel sauce.
Chill & Serve: For best results, refrigerate for 15–30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Enjoy this creamy, crunchy, and fruity delight!
