Ingredients:
For the Strawberry Crunch Nachos:

1/4 cup melted butter
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup freeze-dried strawberries, crushed
A pinch of salt
For the Strawberry Cheesecake Dip:
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup whipped topping
1/4 cup strawberry puree (fresh or from frozen strawberries)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp lemon juice (optional, for added tartness)
Instructions:
Prepare the Strawberry Crunch Nachos:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar, crushed freeze-dried strawberries, and a pinch of salt until the crumbs are well coated.
Spread the mixture evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the crumbs are golden brown. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning. Once baked, remove and let them cool completely.
Make the Strawberry Cheesecake Dip:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
Add in the whipped topping, strawberry puree, vanilla extract, and lemon juice (if using). Continue to mix until everything is well incorporated and the dip has a smooth, fluffy consistency.
Refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow it to firm up a bit and chill.
