Number Of Ingredients 8

1 roll (16 1/2-ounce) Pillsbury® refrigerated sugar cookies
2 packages (8-ounces each) cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup strawberry topping (from an 11.75-ounce jar)
2 eggs
1 container (16-ounce) frozen whipped topping, thawed
4 to 6 drops red food color, if desired

Steps:

Heat oven to 350°F. Press cookie dough evenly into bottom only of ungreased 13x9-inch pan. If dough is sticky, use floured fingers. In medium bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar and 3/4 cup of the strawberry topping with electric mixer on medium-high speed about 1 minute or until well blended. Add eggs; beat about 2 minutes or until well blended and creamy. Spread evenly over crust in pan. In medium bowl, mix whipped topping, food color and remaining 1/4 cup strawberry topping. Spread topping mixture over cooled cream cheese layer. Refrigerate about 2 hours or until set. To serve, cut into 6 rows by 3 rows. Garnish each serving with fresh berries. Cover and refrigerate any remaining dessert.
