# Detailed Cooking Steps:
01 -
Mix graham crumbs, melted butter, and sugar in a bowl. Blend it all together. Push into a 9×13 pan to make a layer. Chill in the fridge until you're set to add the filling.

Beat softened cream cheese in a large mixing bowl until it’s fluffy. Add powdered sugar and a bit of vanilla to it gradually, mixing as you go. Blend whipped cream in gently. Spread this creamy layer over the cold crust.

Lay out your sliced berries on top of the cream cheese mixture.

In a separate bowl, combine the pudding and milk. Stir until it gets thickened, then fold in the pineapple. Spoon this over your strawberries.

Spread whipped cream over the top. Use fresh berries to make it look appealing.
06 -
Let it chill in the fridge for a few hours (4+) or leave it overnight if you have time. Serve cold.
