4.6 from 59 reviews

These Fried Strawberry Cheesecake Sandwiches combine creamy cheesecake filling and fresh strawberries between buttery brioche slices, pan-fried to golden perfection for a crispy, indulgent dessert or snack.

Ingredients

Scale

Sandwich Bread:

  • 8 slices of brioche bread
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Creamy Filling:

  • 115 grams cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 120 grams fresh strawberries, thinly sliced
  • 60 milliliters strawberry preserves

Egg Coating:

  • 2 large eggs
  • 45 milliliters whole milk

Final Touch:

  • Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions

  1. Make the Filling: In a bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and fluffy to create a rich, creamy filling.
  2. Assemble the Sandwiches: Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly on four slices of brioche bread, leaving a small border around the edges. Layer thinly sliced strawberries and a spoonful of strawberry preserves over the cream cheese. Top each with another slice of bread and gently press them together to seal the sandwiches.
  3. Prepare the Egg Coating: In a shallow dish, whisk the eggs and whole milk together until fully combined, forming the coating mixture.
  4. Coat the Sandwiches: Dip each assembled sandwich into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are completely coated for even frying.
  5. Pan-Fry: Heat the unsalted butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Fry the sandwiches for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until they are crisp and golden brown. Once cooked, transfer the sandwiches to paper towels to drain any excess butter.
  6. Serve: Dust the sandwiches with powdered sugar, slice them diagonally, and serve immediately while warm for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • Use brioche bread for a rich, buttery flavor that pairs well with the creamy filling.
  • Ensure cream cheese is softened to make mixing easier and achieve a smooth filling.
  • Serve immediately to enjoy the sandwiches warm and crispy.
  • Add a drizzle of honey or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
  • Can substitute strawberry preserves with raspberry or apricot for flavor variation.
