Ingredients
Cheesecake Filling
- 8 ounces (225 g) cream cheese, softened
- ¼ cup (30 g) powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional, for brightness)
- ½ cup (120 ml) heavy whipping cream, whipped to stiff peaks
For Assembly
- 8–10 fruit roll-ups (assorted flavors)
- Fresh strawberries, diced (optional)
- Fresh blueberries or raspberries (optional)
- Rainbow sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Make the filling.
Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sugar, vanilla, and lemon juice, then beat until creamy.
- Fold in the whipped cream.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until light and fluffy.
- Prepare the fruit roll-ups.
Unroll one fruit roll-up at a time and place it on a clean work surface.
- Fill.
Spread a thin, even layer of the cheesecake filling over each fruit roll-up, leaving about ½ inch (1 cm) around the edges. If desired, sprinkle on a few finely diced berries.
- Roll.
Roll each fruit roll-up up tightly, jelly-roll style.
- Chill.
Place the rolls seam-side down on a plate or tray and refrigerate for at least 1 hour until firm.
- Slice.
Using a sharp knife lightly coated with cooking spray or wiped clean between cuts, slice each roll into 1-inch (2.5 cm) pieces.
- Serve.
Garnish with sprinkles or extra berries if desired and serve chilled.
Tips
- Work with one fruit roll-up at a time—they become stickier once unwrapped.
- Don’t overfill, or the cheesecake mixture may squeeze out when rolling.
- Chill thoroughly before slicing for the cleanest cuts.
- A warm knife wiped clean between cuts helps create neat edges.
Flavor Variations
- Strawberry Shortcake: Add crushed vanilla wafers to the filling.
- Cookies & Cream: Fold crushed chocolate sandwich cookies into the cheesecake mixture.
- Birthday Cake: Stir colorful sprinkles into the filling.
- Chocolate Berry: Spread a very thin layer of chocolate-hazelnut spread before adding the cheesecake filling.
- Tropical: Mix finely diced mango and toasted coconut into the filling.
Storage
- Refrigerator: Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- Freezer: Not recommended, as the fruit roll-ups can become tough and the filling may separate after thawing.
