Ingredients

  • 8 slices white sandwich bread
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup cinnamon sugar (for coating)
  • Oil for frying (vegetable or canola)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. Gently fold in chopped strawberries.
  3. Spread a spoonful of the cheesecake mixture on one slice of bread and top with another slice to form a sandwich.
  4. Optional: Trim crusts and seal edges with a fork for pocket-style sandwiches.
  5. Heat butter in a pan and toast sandwiches on both sides until golden, or deep-fry in hot oil until crispy and golden brown.
  6. Immediately coat fried sandwiches in cinnamon sugar while hot.
  7. Let cool slightly, slice, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Swap strawberries for other berries or use fruit jam.
  • Add chocolate chips to the filling for extra decadence.
  • Cook in a skillet for a lighter version if not deep-frying.
  • Drizzle with chocolate or caramel sauce for more flavor.
  • Reheat in skillet or air fryer to keep crispness—avoid microwave.
