Fresh Strawberry Cream Cheese Cake
You can prepare this treat for no reason, whatsoever, but it is also perfect for Easter or Mother‘s Day. This refreshing spring-summer cake with fresh strawberries and cream cheese is so easy to prepare.
Besides strawberries and cream cheese, you will need standard ingredients like eggs, sugar, flour, vanilla extract… I also added some Greek yogurt, for a special taste and some corn starch, because it makes structure finer.

Yvonne Wu says
Dear Dragana, I plan to make your cake for my Memorial Day get together. However, I do not own a 9 inch spring form pan. What size bundt pan or cake pan could I use instead? Thanks!
Dragana says
Hi Yvonne,
Thanks for stopping by!
You can try with 10 inch round cake pan, but you must pay attenttion on cooking time. It should be shorther.

Teresa says
Can you substitute anything for the greek yogurt? perhaps sour cream?
Dragana says
Hi Teresa,
I think it could work.

Patti says
I don’t have a spring form pan. I would like to double the recipe. Would it work if I made it in a 9×13 cake pan?
Dragana says
I’m not sure about quantity of ingredients and baking time Patti, I didn’t made on that way.
During the baking you should check cake or you should bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out dry or with a few crumbs. You can try to increase ingredients by 50%, because of pan size.
Regards,
Dragana
Mary says
This is I need my oven now, hopeful that it’s delicious!
Dragana says
Thanks Mary, enjoy!
Best!
Sue says
I had to cook this for nearly 65 minutes and as I just took it out of the springform pan, the sides feel very soft. I am taking this to a branch tomorrow and I’m very afraid to cut into the middle of it and have it be raw or at best, undercooked.
Dragana says
Hi Sue, thanks for stopping by.
Its a soft cake with fresh strawberries and cream cheese and cooking time also depends on oven. If you like you can bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out dry.
Regards!
Pamela Percival says
Our store was out of strawberries, so I used fresh raspberries! It was delicious with the raspberries.
Dragana says
It’s a great choice too, Pamela.
I’m so glad you liked it.
Regards!

I made this yesterday and it is so wonderful. I baked it a little to long but it’s still a fantastic dessert. I”ll correct the baking time next time I make it. Perfect for just me and my husband.

Irina says
I’m confused, I think there is the step missing in the recepie. When do you mix dry ingredients from step 2 (the medium dish)? Thanks.
Dragana says
Hi Irina,
I will repeat process. In step 5 you are adding dry ingredients.
1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Butter and flour 9 inch spring form pan or use cooking spray, instead. Leave aside.
2. In medium dish combine dry ingredients – flour, corn starch, baking powder and salt. Leave aside.
3. In a large dish, mix cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer on medium speed for about a minute.
4. Add 3/4 cup sugar and mix some more, until it is light and fluffy.
5. Add one egg at a time, vanilla extract and Greek yogurt and continue to mix, slowly adding dry ingredients.
Best regards.
John says
So I bought a 8 oz stick of creme cheese do I just cut it in half and that’s all I need? Because I see many videos of people using 4 sticks of 8 oz so I’m wondering if I need more .
Dragana says
Yes Yohn, you can cut it in half.
Best regards.
Leanne says
I made this cake for a summer cookout and it was delicious! I made a thick vanilla glaze to go on top of the cake with powdered sugar, vanilla flavoring, and heavy cream. Everyone loved it!
Dragana says
Great idea, Leanne. I’m so glad you liked it. Best regards.
Amna says
Hi!
This recipe looks amazing and I’m going to try it today. I was just wondering on how to store this cake. In a fridge or at room temperature?
Dragana says
Thank you Amna. You can keep it in the fridge few days longer.
Enjoy!
Ruth says
After adding the sugar to the butter and cream cheese mixture how long does it take to reach “ light and fluffy “ stage. Flavor of the cake was great.
Dragana says
Hi Ruth,
In a large dish, mix cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer on medium speed for about a minute.
Add 3/4 cup sugar and mix one minute more, until it’s light and fluffy.
Best regards.
Trudy says
I’m planning to make this cake tomorrow. I’m at an elevation of 3500 feet. Is the oven temperature correct at 350°?
Dragana says
Yes, Trudy. But if you like you can bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out dry.
Best regards!
Jane says
If fresh berries aren’t available can frozen ones be used?
Dragana says
Yes Jane.
Enjoy!
Kara says
Hi! I want to make this but I only have a 10-inch springform pan. Would you recommend I use bigger amounts for ingredients or would this still work? I don’t want the cake to be too thin.
Dragana says
Hi Kara,
you need to increase each ingredient by 20 percent.
Best regards,
Dragana
