Steps:

• In a large bowl, cream the butter, cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg yolk and vanilla. Add flour and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or until easy to handle. , Shape dough into 1-in. balls. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Using the end of a wooden spoon handle, make a 1/2-in.-deep indentation in the center of each ball; fill with about 1/4 teaspoon jam. Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until set. Remove to wire racks to cool.

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, cream the butter, sugar and cream cheese. Add vanilla and egg yolk; mix well. Add flour and blend. Cover and refrigerate.
• Roll into 1 inches balls. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. Using the end of a wooden spoon handle, make indentation in the center of each ball. Fill with 1/4 teaspoon jam. Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes or until set. Remove to wire racks to cool.

Steps:

• For the crushed cookie crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment.
• Combine the melted butter with the wafer cookies in a medium bowl. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then let cool completely before using.
• For the ice cream cake: Toss the strawberries with the sugar in a medium bowl and then layer them onto the cookie crust. Scoop the cookies and cream and strawberry ice creams onto the berry layer, packing it in tightly and alternating the scoops to create a marbled or checkerboard effect. Spread with an offset spatula to make a smooth top. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
• Unmold the cake by running a knife around the edge, then unhinge the springform and remove. Invert the cake onto a sheet of plastic wrap and remove the bottom of the pan and the parchment. Place a plate on the bottom and invert once more.
• For the whipped cream frosting: Add the heavy cream, confectioners' sugar and vanilla to a large bowl and whip with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. (This makes enough frosting to cover the top and sides of the cake with additional to pipe decorations if desired.)
• Frost the top and sides of the cake with the whipped cream frosting, sprinkle with the wafer cookies. If the cake begins to get too soft, put it back into the freezer for a few minutes.
• Freeze another 1 1/2 to 2 hours or overnight. Before serving, let the cake sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Using an electric stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or an electric hand mixer, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in egg yolk, salt, vanilla seeds and orange blossom water, if using. Beat in flour until smooth, scraping the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula.
• Scrape the dough onto a 12-inch-long piece of plastic wrap and form it into a log, 1 1/2 inches in diameter. It will be very sticky, so use the plastic wrap to help form the log (or make two shorter logs if that's easier). Then wrap it up and chill until it's thoroughly cold, at least 3 hours (and up to 5 days).
• When ready to bake, heat oven to 350 degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or nonstick liners.
• Unwrap the dough log and slice it into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Arrange them on the prepared baking sheets and bake until the cookies are golden at the edges, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer baking sheets to a wire rack to cool completely. Cookies can be bake up to 4 days ahead and stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
• When ready to serve, sprinkle strawberries with a little sugar and let them sit for 15 minutes to release their juices.
• Using an electric mixer fitted with the whisk, or a whisk and elbow grease, whip the cream, adding a teaspoon or two of sugar, if you like. Note that the cookies are very sweet so you may not want to add any sugar at all.
• Spoon the strawberries into serving bowls and top with whipped cream. Drizzle cream with juices from the strawberry bowl. Tuck a cookie or two in each bowl and serve with spoons.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly spray the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
• Beat cake mix and butter together in a large bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until crumbly. Reserve 1 cup of crumble mixture; press the rest into the bottom of the prepared pan.
• Beat cream cheese and frosting together in the same bowl until smooth. Beat in eggs until well blended. Pour over the crust and spread evenly. Sprinkle the reserved crumble mixture evenly on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set and golden, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, at least 2 hours.
• Cut bars into 6x6 rows.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, smash cream cheese with a fork.
• Combine the rest of the ingredients (except the vanilla wafers) together with the cream cheese.
• Mix well.
• Let chill in the refridgerator for at least 30 minutes.
• On the flat side of the wafer, spread 2 tsp of mixture.
• Then top with another wafer to make a sandwich.
• Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Make the crust: Heat oven to 350 degrees with a rack in the middle position. Place cookies, sugar and salt in a food processor and process until finely ground. (You should have about 1 1/2 cups). Add butter and pulse until the mixture looks like wet sand.
• Transfer mixture to a standard 9-inch pie plate. Using the bottom of a flat-bottomed measuring cup, press the mixture up the sides and into the bottom of the pie plate. Bake on the middle rack until dry and set, 20 to 25 minutes. (If the crust slumps or puffs while it bakes, gently press it back into place while still warm with the measuring cup and proceed.) Let cool completely.
• Make the filling: Place 3 tablespoons cold water in a small bowl. Sprinkle gelatin over top and let stand until softened, about 5 minutes. In a large bowl, whisk together sour cream and vanilla until smooth. Combine cream, sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small pot and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Whisk in gelatin mixture until completely dissolved, then whisk cream mixture into sour cream. Pour filling into cooled crust and refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours and up to 2 days. (If making ahead, wrap tightly once set).
• Toss strawberries with sugar, if needed, and let sit for 10 minutes. Pile strawberries and any accumulated juices on top of pie just before serving.
