Strawberry Icebox Cake

Strawberry Icebox Cake

Ingredients List

Cream Filling

  • Cream Cheese: 265 g (~8 oz / 1 block)
  • Heavy Whipping Cream: 1 cup (200 ml)
  • Powdered Sugar: 120 g
  • Lemon Zest: Zest of 1 whole lemon

Layers & Assembly

  • Fresh Strawberries: 250 g (washed, topped, and sliced)
  • Biscoff Cookies: 1 pack (from a ~200 g package) 

Equipment Needed

  • Loaf pan / cake dish lined with plastic wrap
  • Mixing bowl & whisk
  • Kitchen scale

Step-by-Step Cooking Instructions

Step 1: Prep the Dish & Ingredients

  • Line a loaf pan/cake dish with plastic wrap, leaving enough overhang to pull the cake out later.
  • Slice the washed fresh strawberries into thin, flat slices.
  • Tip: If the cream cheese is too cold, submerge the sealed container in a bowl of hot water for a few minutes to quickly soften it.

Step 2: Make the Cream Filling:

  • In a large bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream (200 ml) and softened cream cheese (265 g).
  • Add the zest of 1 whole lemon.
  • Whisk continuously by hand until thick and smooth.
  • Add the powdered sugar (120 g) and whisk until fully incorporated.

Step 3: Assemble the Cake

  • Base Layer: Spread a layer of the cream filling evenly over the bottom of the plastic-wrap-lined pan.
  • Cookie Layer: Place a single layer of Biscoff cookies on top of the cream layer.
  • Fruit Layer: Arrange a layer of sliced strawberries over the cookies.
  • Top Layer: Pour the remaining cream filling over the top, spreading it evenly to cover the fruit and cookies completely.

Step 4: Chill & Serve

  • Fold the overhanging plastic wrap over the top to seal the cake.
  • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight, so the cookies absorb moisture from the cream and soften into a cake-like texture.
  • Unmold using the plastic wrap overhang, slice, and serve.
