1. Place the strawberries into a small bowl and sprinkle over a few tablespoons of granulated sugar. Use a spoon to toss the strawberries in the sugar until they are all evenly coated.
2. Leave the strawberries for about 30 minutes for this process to take place or until you are ready to make the parfaits, overnight is fine. While you’re waiting on the strawberries get started on the cheesecake filling.
3. In a small bowl add the room temperature cream cheese. Just remove it from the fridge an hour or so before you need to use it. Use a spatula to give it a mix to soften.
4. To the cream cheese add a couple of tablespoons of icing sugar or powdered sugar to sweeten it up. A few tablespoons are about the perfect amount.
5. Fold the sugar into the cream cheese until it is well combined and smooth. Switch to using a whisk and pour in 3/4 of a cup of heavy whipping cream into the bowl with the cream cheese.
6. Use the whisk to beat the ingredients together until the mixture starts to thicken. Leave the cheesecake filling in the fridge until you are ready to make the parfaits. When you are ready to assemble the parfaits start with the brownie base.
7. Take a few pieces, and cut them into bite-sized pieces. Place the brownies into the bottom of a couple of glasses. Top the brownies with some of the macerated strawberries. The syrup from the strawberries will sink into the brownies making them super sweet
and fudgy.
8. Lastly top with the cheesecake filling. You can serve these straight away or leave them in the fridge for a few hours.
