These no bake strawberry crunch cheesecake jars are reminiscent of the ice cream bars of my childhood. They are a perfect dessert for sharing and are fun and easy to make.
Process the cookies into crumbs. Add the melted butter and stir to combine.
Put 1½-2 Tablespoons of crust mixture in each jar, lightly pressing down with the back of the measuring spoon to help them form a crust.
In your mixer bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Be sure to scrape the sides of the bowl and the beater to avoid any lumps.
Add the condensed milk a little bit at a time, mixing as you go.
Beat in the strawberry jam.
With the mixer running on low, slowly drizzle in the cream until incorporated. Turn the speed up to high and beat until thick and fluffy.
Spoon or pipe into the jars.
Pulse the remaining cookies and freeze dried strawberries in the food processor until they are crumbs.
Add the butter and work in to form crumbles.
Sprinkle about 1 Tablespoon of strawberry crunch mixture over each jar.
Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
This recipe will make 18 6 ounce jars. If you are using 4 ounce jars, you will get closer to 24. If you don't have small jars, clear plastic cups work well.You will need one family size package of golden Oreos for the recipe. Use 2 rows to make the crust and the third to make the topping.The jars give you flexibility in that the filling doesn't have to be set firm. So, you could technically serve them right away. However, they are best if you let them chill for at least an hour or two before serving, and they can be made up to a day or two in advance.
