Ingredients

25 g Crackers (about 3 to 4 crackers)
10 g Butter (about 2 teaspoons, melted)
50 g Cream Cheese (about 3 tablespoons, softened)
2 tbsp Whipping Cream
10 g Sugar (about 2 teaspoons)
1 pinch Vanilla Powder
20 g Strawberry Jam (about 1 heaping tablespoon)

Instructions

1
Crush the crackers into fine crumbs and mix them thoroughly in a small bowl with the melted butter.
2
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a small glass or ramekin to form the crust.
3
In a separate bowl, vigorously mix the softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla powder with a fork or mini whisk until completely smooth.
4
Add the whipping cream into the cheese mixture, beating well until the filling becomes light and fluffy.
5
Spoon the creamy cheese filling evenly over the prepared crust in your glass.
6
Top with a generous layer of strawberry jam. Enjoy immediately, or chill in the fridge for 15 minutes for a firmer texture.

Chef's Tips

•Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature; otherwise, it will be very difficult to mix smoothly by hand.
•If your strawberry jam is too thick to spread easily, warm it in the microwave for 5 seconds before adding it to the top.
•You can swap the sugar for xylitol if you prefer a lower-sugar version.
