Ingredients:
| Ingredients | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Strawberries, sliced | 3-4 cups |
| Whole Graham Crackers | 12-15 |
| Heavy Whipping Cream | 1 1/2 pints |
| Sugar | 4-5 tablespoons |
| Vanilla | 1 1/2 teaspoons |
Instructions:
- Prepare the Whipped Cream Mixture: In a bowl, mix together the heavy whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla until stiff peaks form. This will create a light and fluffy whipped cream for your cake.
- Layer the Graham Crackers: Take an 8×8 pan and line the bottom with whole graham crackers. This forms the base of your cake.
- Spread the Whipped Cream: Use a spatula to spread a layer of the whipped cream mixture over the graham crackers, covering them completely.
- Add the Strawberries: Place a layer of sliced strawberries on top of the whipped cream, covering it evenly.
- Repeat the Layers: Repeat the process by adding another layer of graham crackers, followed by whipped cream and strawberries. Repeat this step once more to create three layers in total.
- Finish with Strawberries: Top the final layer of whipped cream with the remaining sliced strawberries, ensuring they’re arranged neatly.
- Chill in the Fridge: Place the assembled cake in the fridge and let it chill for approximately 3 hours. This allows the flavors to meld together and the cake to set.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once chilled, slice the cake into squares and serve. Enjoy the delicious combination of creamy whipped cream, sweet strawberries, and crunchy graham crackers!
