Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup whipped cream
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1/2 cup crushed vanilla cookies
  • 2 cups cooked sushi rice or sticky rice, warm
  • 2 tablespoons sugar or powdered sugar (divided)
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • Strawberry sauce or jam (optional, for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Rice Mixture: Cook sushi or sticky rice according to package instructions. While still warm, gently fold in sugar and lemon zest until evenly coated and sticky but not wet.
  2. Mix the Cheesecake Filling: Beat softened cream cheese until smooth in a bowl. Gradually fold in whipped cream and a little powdered sugar to create a light and airy, yet rich and creamy filling.
  3. Assemble the Rolls: Lay out a sheet of plastic wrap and spread a thin, even layer of the sweetened rice on top like sushi rice. Carefully flip the rice onto parchment paper, remove the plastic wrap, then spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the rice. Place fresh sliced strawberries and crushed vanilla cookies in a line along one edge.
  4. Roll and Chill: Using the parchment paper to help, tightly roll the dessert into a sushi roll shape. Wrap securely and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set and firm up.
  5. Slice and Serve: Once chilled, slice the roll into bite-sized pieces using a sharp knife. For cleaner cuts, dip the knife in hot water and wipe it between each slice. Optionally drizzle with strawberry sauce or jam before serving.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese for a smooth filling without lumps.
  • Keep rice slightly warm when mixing in sugar to dissolve it perfectly and achieve sticky texture.
  • Handle rolls gently as the no-bake texture is delicate.
  • Chill rolls well to allow proper setting for neat slices and flavor melding.
  • Experiment with toppings like fresh mint, edible flowers, cocoa powder, chocolate drizzle, or chopped nuts for variety.
