Strawberry Cheesecake Lush
The word lush brings to mind all things elaborate and swanky, but when it comes to dessert it just means an easy and simple layered confection that tastes rich. A crunchy base of cookies is topped with a couple of silky layers of cheesecake, pudding and whipped topping and chilled until set, and there you have it – the incredible, irresistible lush.
