Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh strawberries
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Water
- 2 large Cinnamon rolls (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup Whipped cream
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Strawberry syrup
- 1 cup Ice cubes
Directions
Step 1
Wash and hull the strawberries, then add them to a blender along with granulated sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and water.
Step 2
Blend the mixture until smooth. Strain it through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds, if desired.
Step 3
Pour the strawberry mixture into a shallow baking dish and place it in the freezer. Stir with a fork every 30 minutes to create a granita-like texture. This process should take about 2 hours but can be done ahead of time.
Step 4
While the strawberry mixture is freezing, bake the cinnamon rolls according to package instructions or your preferred homemade recipe. Allow them to cool slightly, then cut them into small bite-sized pieces.
Step 5
In a mixing bowl, whip the cream and powdered sugar together until soft peaks form. Set aside for assembly.
Step 6
To assemble, fill serving glasses halfway with crushed ice. Add a layer of strawberry granita, then a few pieces of cinnamon roll.
Step 7
Repeat the layers and finish with a dollop of whipped cream on top. Drizzle with strawberry syrup for an extra touch of sweetness.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy this frosty, sweet treat!
