Ingredients

  • 3 lbs strawberries thinly sliced
  • 24 honey graham crackers
  • 24 oz frozen whipped topping thawed

Homemade Whipped Cream Option

  • 6 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • To make homemade whipped cream (if desired), beat heavy cream to stiff peaks. Beat in powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth.
  • In a 9x13 baking dish, spread a thin layer of whipped topping just to coat the bottom. Place graham crackers across the center of pan and sides, breaking them as needed to fit around the edges.
  • Spread a thick layer of whipped topping over graham crackers and top with a hearty layer of sliced strawberries.
  • Place another layer of graham crackers on top of strawberries, then whipped topping, then strawberries. Repeat the layers 1 more time (3 times total) and you should reach the top of the pan. You will finish with a layer of sliced strawberries on top.
  • Refrigerate overnight or at least 4 hours or overnight until the graham crackers have softened. Serve chilled.

Notes
