Ingredients

• 4 cups Fresh strawberries
• 16 sheets Graham crackers
• 8 oz Cream cheese
• 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 cups Heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 6 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Wash and hull the strawberries, then slice them into thin pieces. Set aside 1 cup of sliced strawberries for garnish.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

Step 3

Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese and continue beating until fully combined and smooth.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream with the granulated sugar until soft peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture gently until no streaks remain. This will create a light and creamy filling.

Step 6

Next, lightly dip each graham cracker sheet into the milk. This will help them soften in the finished cake.

Step 7

In a 9x13-inch baking dish or similar-sized dish, spread a thin, even layer of the cream mixture on the bottom.

Step 8

Place a single layer of milk-dipped graham crackers over the cream layer, covering as much of the dish as possible. Break crackers as needed to fit.

Step 9

Spread a generous layer of the cream mixture over the graham crackers, then top with a layer of sliced strawberries.

Step 10

Repeat the layers (cream, graham crackers, strawberries) until you run out of ingredients or reach the top of the dish. End with a layer of cream.

Step 11

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results, to allow the layers to set and the crackers to soften.

Step 12

Before serving, top the cake with the reserved 1 cup of strawberries and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.

Step 13

Slice into squares and serve chilled. Enjoy this sinful delight!
