Ingredients
- 15 sheets Graham crackers
- 1 pound Fresh strawberries
- 2 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Wash, hull, and thinly slice the strawberries. Set them aside.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream using a hand or stand mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.
Step 3
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the whipped cream, and continue whipping until stiff peaks form.
Step 4
In a 9x13-inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of the whipped cream mixture evenly across the bottom.
Step 5
Place a single layer of graham crackers over the whipped cream, breaking the crackers as needed to fit the dish.
Step 6
Spread another layer of whipped cream over the graham crackers, followed by an even layer of sliced strawberries.
Step 7
Repeat the layers (graham crackers, whipped cream, strawberries) until all the ingredients are used, finishing with a top layer of whipped cream and strawberries.
Step 8
Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the layers to soften and flavors to meld together.
Step 9
Cut into squares and serve chilled. Enjoy!
