Quick and easy Strawberry Cheesecake Puffs. Delicate Puff Pastry filled with ripe and juicy strawberries, a rich no-bake cheesecake filling, and a flavorful strawberry sauce.
Puff Pastry is so much fun to bake with! I made a fantastic Greek Appetizer ( Tiropitas) with one sheet of puff pastry and then with the other sheet, I baked puff pastry shells for these wonderful Strawberry Cheesecake Puffs.

Get Ready to Make Strawberry Cheesecake Puffs!
First, you will need to bake the puff pastries until golden brown.
Now, make the strawberry filling.
Open the puff pastry and then spread the cream cheese mixture on to split puff pastry.
Gently layer the sliced strawberries over cream cheese mixture.
With a spoon, top strawberries with strawberry filling.
Cover with the top of puff pastry, sprinkle with powdered sugar. Isn’t that beautiful?
Stack them on a plate and serve!
Can this dessert be made ahead of time?
Strawberry Cheesecake Puffs can be made ahead of time. The puff pastry can be baked and stored in an airtight container until you’re ready to use them. The no-bake cheesecake mixture and the strawberry sauce can also be made a day ahead and kept in the refrigerator. This makes for a super easy dessert that will come together very quickly.

Woo hoo! Now I know what to do with all the extra strawberries in my kitchen =) I love a combo of crisp puff pastry with sweet soft strawberries. (P.s. I grew up in Japan – the country which consumes the most strawberries in the world. Naturally I’m a fan of the ruby gem and your recipe!)

Dear Nettie, what a delightful treat! I know my daughter would absolutely love this…perfect Springtime dessert. xo, Catherine
Thank you Catherine! Nettie
I am having a sizeable party soon; I think the puffs would be great but concerned how long they can sit out in warm weather where our cabin is located. I also think if they had to be refrigerated for long, the pastry would get chewy. Thoughts?
I would put them together right before the party, they won’t be chewy, the puffs are light and fluffy.
Sound so good! Gotta try them soon. 🙂
I made these the other day. I had an issue with the pie crust not “bubbling” up where I could cut them in half. Do you have any ideas or tricks? I just spread the cheesecake mix, strawberry mix & strawberries on top of a piece of pie crust. They were so delicious!!! I’m literally about to make them again (in 5 mins 🙂 )
My family and I truly loved this recipe!! It will be made more often!! I plan to explore your site and prepare more of your recipes!!
What did you use for puff pastry? Did you buy something or did you make it from scratch??
Elsie,
I used Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry that can be purchased at the market or online.
