Description
A delightful no-bake dessert featuring layers of whipped cream, graham crackers, and mixed berries.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 1 package (14.4 oz) graham crackers
- 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric mixer on medium speed until it begins to thicken.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.
- In a 9×13 inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of whipped cream on the bottom.
- Place a layer of graham crackers over the whipped cream, breaking them as needed to fit.
- Spread half of the remaining whipped cream over the graham crackers, then layer half of the mixed berries on top.
- Repeat the layers with another set of graham crackers, the remaining whipped cream, and the rest of the mixed berries.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld and the graham crackers to soften.
- Before serving, garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.
Notes
- For a chocolate twist, add cocoa powder to the whipped cream or use chocolate graham crackers.
- To make it a bit healthier, substitute Greek yogurt for half of the heavy cream.
