Prepare the Cookie Base : Crush the biscuits and mix with melted butter (optional). Spoon into the bottom of each serving glass and press lightly.
Make the Cream Layer : In a bowl, blend cream cheese, yogurt, honey, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
Assemble the Layers : Add a layer of the creamy mixture over the cookie base, then add sliced strawberries. Repeat layers if desired.
Finish & Serve : Top with strawberries and a sprinkle of pistachios or granola. Serve immediately or chill for 30 minutes for a firmer texture.
Tips & Variations
Fruit swap: Try raspberries, blueberries, mango, or peaches instead of strawberries.
Flavor twist: Use flavored yogurt (vanilla, strawberry, or coconut) for extra depth.
Extra crunch: Add granola, crushed nuts, or cereal between layers.
Chill time: For a thicker texture, refrigerate for 30–60 minutes before serving.
Make it lighter: Use low-fat yogurt and reduce sweetener.
Storage
Refrigerator: Keep covered for up to 2 days.
Do not freeze: The fresh fruit and creamy texture won’t hold up.
