Strawberry Cream Cheese Icebox Cake

"Light, refreshing, and full of cool, creamy, fresh berry flavor, this strawberry cream cheese icebox cake is the perfect easy, no-bake dessert. With layers of graham crackers, pudding, cream cheese, Cool Whip, and sliced strawberries, there’s no cooking necessary — just assemble and chill! Why You’ll Love this Strawberry Icebox Cake: - Easy. There are no special baking skills required for this “cake.” If you can mix and assemble the ingredients, you can make the delicious strawberry layered dessert! - No-Bake. Especially ideal for hot summer months when you don’t want to turn on the oven, icebox cakes don’t actually require any baking. Instead, the ingredients sit in the fridge, the graham crackers soften, and the flavors come together. - Make-Ahead. This dessert needs at least 4 hours to chill in the fridge, so it’s great for hosting holidays like Easter, Valentine’s Day, or a 4th of July picnic. You can enjoy the gathering with friends and family without any last-minute stress in the kitchen. - Light and Refreshing. Compared to other more decadent desserts, this cake is relatively low in calories and won’t weigh you down! The fresh fruit is an added bonus, and you can even use sugar-free pudding mix and sugar-free Cool Whip for a lighter treat. - Versatile. There are many ways to adapt this recipe to make it your own (see the Recipe Variations section below for more details). For instance, make it bigger in a 9 x 13-inch dish, use other berries, and try different flavors of pudding."
