Directions

  1. Wash the strawberries, remove the stems, and slice them into small pieces.

  2. In the Instant Pot, combine the sliced strawberries, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice. Stir well and let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow the strawberries to release their juices.

  3. Close the Instant Pot lid and ensure the vent is in the sealing position.

  4. Select the "Manual" or "Pressure Cook" setting on your Instant Pot and set the timer for 1 minute at high pressure.

  5. Once the cooking time is complete, do a quick release of the pressure by carefully turning the vent to the venting position. Be cautious as hot steam will be released.

  6. Open the Instant Pot lid and stir the cooked strawberries. If you prefer a smoother consistency, you can use an immersion blender or potato masher to mash the strawberries.

  7. In a small bowl, mix the corn starch with 1 teaspoon of water to create a slurry.

  8. Add the corn starch slurry to the cooked strawberries in the Instant Pot, stirring continuously.

  9. Select the "Sauté" setting on your Instant Pot and cook the mixture for another 1-2 minutes until it thickens to your desired consistency. Stir constantly during this process to avoid sticking.

  10. Turn off the Instant Pot.

  11. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the cinnamon, 3 tablespoons of sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon of lemon extract to the cream cheese. Mix until well combined.

  12. Gently fold the cream (you "can" whip into stiff peeks, but I did not for this recipe) into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.

  13. Add the cooled strawberry topping to the cream cheese mixture, and gently fold everything together until well combined.
