-
Mashing the Cream Cheese Mixture
Mash 200g of cream cheese with 40g of sugar until smooth.
Then, add 100g of unsweetened yogurt and continue to mash until the mixture is smooth and no longer lumpy.
Note: Cream cheese and unsweetened yogurt should be at room temperature for easier smooth mashing. -
Whip the cream
Put 200ml of whipping cream into a bowl, use a whisk to mix until the cream is soft and fluffy, forming clear peaks, lifting the whisk should create stiff peaks that bend down slightly to indicate it’s done.

Strawberry cream cheese mixture
Add the cream cheese to the bowl of whipping cream and then use a flat whisk to gently fold in the mixture from the bottom up.
Bring the whisk down to the bottom of the bowl, lift the heavier ingredients up, and fold them to the side. Continue to repeat this action until the mixture is smooth.
Add a little grated lemon zest and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to the bowl and continue to mix well.
Divide the cream mixture into 2 portions, then add all the strawberry jam that has been cooked to one portion and mix well until combined.
Note:- You need to fold gently according to the correct folding technique, as vigorous mixing will cause the air bubbles in the whipping cream to dissipate, and the cream will be prone to ice crystals.
- It is advisable to let the strawberry jam cool completely before mixing with the cream mixture, as hot jam will cause the cream to become watery.
-
Pouring into the mold
Alternate layering 2 types of cream into the mold, with 1 layer of milk cream followed by 1 layer of strawberry cream, continuing until all the cream is used up.
Next, cover the mold tightly with plastic wrap and let it sit overnight in the freezer.

Prepare and cook strawberry jam
First, remove the stems from the strawberries, then wash them thoroughly and cut them into small pieces.
Place a pan on the stove, add the strawberries and 3 tablespoons of sugar, then stir the mixture over medium heat for 4 – 5 minutes until the strawberries are soft and release their juice.
After 5 minutes, add 1/3 teaspoon of cornstarch, continue stirring until the cornstarch dissolves, then cook for another 1 – 2 minutes until the strawberry mixture thickens slightly.

Whip the cream cheese mixture
Put 475ml of whipping cream into a bowl, then use a hand mixer to whip the cream until stiff peaks form, with clear peaks visible; lifting the whisk should create a standing peak.
Next, add 250gr of cream cheese and continue to mix until the mixture is well combined.
Then, add 400gr of condensed milk and mix well once more to finish.
Tip:
- You can use a whisk to whip the cream cheese by: putting the whipping cream in the refrigerator for 15 minutes or placing the bowl of cream in a basin of ice water, then whisking vigorously for about 5 – 7 minutes.

Finally, pour the remaining 1/2 of the cream cheese mixture into the mold, cover it tightly, and freeze for 8 hours.

How to choose delicious fresh strawberries
- Choose large, bright red, juicy strawberries that still have their green caps and fresh leaves.
- Do not choose overripe strawberries as the inside may be dry and hollow.
- Avoid choosing strawberries that are dull in color, misshapen, or spoiled. Additionally, those with green skin and many spots should not be bought as strawberries will not ripen after being picked.
- If using strawberries on the same day, you can leave them at room temperature. However, if you want to preserve them for longer, from 5 to 7 days, you should wrap them in paper towels and place them in the refrigerator.
