Instructions
Making Strawberry Icebox Cake is easy if you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Cream Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use a handheld mixer to whip until soft peaks form.
2. Mix the Cream Cheese: In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
3. Combine Creams: Gradually fold the whipped cream mixture into the cream cheese, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
4. Layer the Ingredients: Begin by spreading a thin layer of the cream mixture on the bottom of a 9×13 inch dish.
5. Add Graham Crackers: Layer graham crackers over the cream mixture until the bottom is covered.
6. Layer Strawberries: Add a layer of sliced strawberries over the graham crackers, followed by another layer of the cream mixture spread over the strawberries.
7. Repeat the Layers: Continue layering with graham crackers, strawberries, and cream mixture until all ingredients are used, finishing with a cream layer on top.
8. Chill: Cover and refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours, or overnight for the best flavor and texture.
9. Serve: Before serving, garnish with extra strawberries if desired.
