For the Cheesecake Layer:

1 tsp vanilla extract
2–3 tbsp zero-calorie sweetener (like Stevia, monk fruit, or erythritol), adjust to taste

For the Strawberry Layer:

1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
1 tsp lemon juice
1–2 tsp sweetener (optional)

For the Crust Layer:

4 full sheets low-fat graham crackers, crushed (or sugar-free digestive biscuits)
2 tbsp light butter or unsweetened applesauce (for binding)

Instructions: Step-by-Step

Step 1: Prepare the Strawberry Compote

In a small saucepan, add the chopped strawberries, lemon juice, and optional sweetener.
Cook over medium heat for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until strawberries soften and release their juices.
Mash slightly with a fork for a chunky texture or blend for a smooth purée.
Let the compote cool completely before layering.

Tip: You can skip cooking and use fresh strawberries if you prefer a raw fruit layer.
