cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Cut off the tops of the strawberries.

Place the strawberries into a blender.

Add 2 tablespoons of orange juice and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar to the blender.

Blend the strawberries with the orange juice and brown sugar until smooth.

In a bowl, prepare the pancake mix according to package instructions.

Add a little bit of the blended strawberry sauce into the pancake mix and whisk together.

Chop up half a cheesecake (strawberry cheesecake by Sara Lee) into smaller pieces.

In a hot pan, add the blended strawberry mixture and about 2 tablespoons of brown sugar.

Add syrup and a small drop of vanilla to the strawberry mixture in the pan and boil on low heat.

Add oil to another pan and heat it up.

Pour the pancake mixture into the hot pan, making big stack pancakes to hold the cheesecake pieces.

Lay chunks of cheesecake into the pancake batter in the pan.

Flip the pancakes carefully to avoid breaking them.

Let the strawberry sauce reduce until it thickens.

For presentation, place sliced fresh strawberries and the thickened strawberry sauce on top of the pancakes.

Garnish with fresh strawberries and whipped cream.
