Ingredients
1 1/2 cups cooked sushi rice (sweetened with 2 tbsp sugar and 1 tbsp rice vinegar)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
8–10 fresh strawberries, hulled
1/2 cup crushed graham crackers
1 sheet nori (optional)
Extra strawberries, halved (for topping)
Whipped cream (for topping)
Plastic wrap (for rolling)
Instructions
1. Cook the sushi rice according to package directions, stir in sugar and vinegar, and let cool completely.
2. Beat cream cheese until smooth, then add powdered sugar and vanilla. Whip the cream separately, and fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
3. On a plastic wrap or sushi mat, spread an even rectangle of sweet rice. Optionally, place a nori sheet between the rice and wrap.
4. Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly, leaving an inch at the top edge clean. Place strawberries in a line across the center.
5. Roll tightly using the wrap or mat, then refrigerate wrapped roll for 30–60 minutes.
6. Roll the chilled sushi roll in crushed graham cracker crumbs until evenly coated.
7. Slice with a clean sharp knife and top each piece with whipped cream and a strawberry half.
Notes
For the cleanest slices, chill the roll thoroughly and wipe your knife between cuts.
Use firm, fresh strawberries to maintain structure inside the roll.
Golden Oreos can be used instead of graham crackers for a sweeter twist.
