Delicious deep-fried strawberry cheesecake pies with a crispy exterior and creamy filling, perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, diced
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 cup cold butter, cubed
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cheesecake filling by combining softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, diced strawberries, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. Whisk together dry ingredients in another bowl: mix flour, granulated sugar, salt, and baking powder. Cut in cold butter until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Form the dough by gradually adding cold water and mixing until a dough forms. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  4. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick. Use a round cutter to cut out 4-inch circles.
  5. Fill the dough circles with a tablespoon of cheesecake filling in the center.
  6. Seal the pies by folding over the dough to create a half-moon shape and sealing with a fork.
  7. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).
  8. Fry the pies for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  9. Drain the fried pies on paper towels and serve warm, optionally dusted with powdered sugar.

Notes

Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.
