Preparation Steps

  • In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gradually add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to whip until well combined.
  • Arrange a layer of graham cracker squares in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • Spread a layer of the whipped cream mixture over the graham crackers. If using, add a layer of sliced strawberries.
  • Repeat the layering process: graham crackers, whipped cream, and strawberries, until all ingredients are used, ending with a layer of whipped cream.
  • Drizzle the melted butter over the top layer of whipped cream. You can also top with extra strawberries or graham cracker crumbs.
  • Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the cookies to soften and the flavors to meld.
  • Slice and serve chilled.

Notes

This icebox cake is best served cold and can be customized with different fruits like blueberries or raspberries.
