Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh strawberries
- 200 grams graham crackers
- 250 grams cream cheese
- 100 grams powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 250 milliliters heavy cream
- 75 grams butter
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Wash and hull the strawberries, then slice them thinly. Reserve a few whole strawberries for garnish, if desired.
Step 2
Crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed zip-top bag and rolling over them with a rolling pin.
Step 3
Melt the butter and mix it with the graham cracker crumbs until evenly combined to form the crust mixture.
Step 4
In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla extract and lemon juice and mix well.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
Step 6
Begin assembling the dessert in a trifle dish, individual serving glasses, or a rectangular dish. Start with a layer of graham cracker crumb mixture at the bottom, pressing it down gently.
Step 7
Add a layer of the cream cheese mixture on top, spreading it out with a spatula.
Step 8
Arrange a layer of sliced strawberries over the cream layer.
Step 9
Repeat the layering process (crumbs, cream, strawberries) until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cream on top.
Step 10
Garnish with whole strawberries or additional sliced strawberries as desired.
Step 11
Chill the dessert in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours, or until set.
Step 12
Serve chilled and enjoy the dreamy combination of strawberries, cream, and graham crackers!
