A delightful twist on a classic fruit salad, this Cheesecake Fruit Salad combines fresh fruit with a creamy cheesecake filling and a decadent caramel drizzle. It’s a perfect dessert or side dish for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Fruit Salad:

  • 2 cups strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 2 cups green apples, chopped
  • 1 cup grapes (red or green), halved
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned), drained
  • 1 cup bananas, sliced

For the Cheesecake Filling:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream (chilled)

For the Caramel Drizzle:

  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Fruit: Wash and prep all the fruits (slice, chop, or halve as required). Combine them in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: Beat softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip chilled heavy cream to stiff peaks. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
  3. Assemble the Salad: Pour the cheesecake filling over the mixed fruits. Gently fold to coat the fruit evenly.
  4. Add Caramel Drizzle: Drizzle caramel sauce generously over the salad or serve it on the side.
  5. Chill and Serve: Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Serve chilled with extra caramel drizzle or garnished with crushed graham crackers.
