Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 package (14.4 ounces) graham crackers
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until soft peaks form.
- On a rectangular serving platter, arrange a layer of graham crackers to cover the bottom.
- Spread a layer of the whipped cream mixture over the graham crackers, then add a layer of sliced strawberries and blueberries.
- Repeat the layers, alternating between graham crackers, whipped cream, and berries until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of whipped cream on top.
- Cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results, to allow the graham crackers to soften.
- Before serving, garnish with additional berries if desired and slice into squares.
Notes
- For a chocolate twist, add cocoa powder to the whipped cream mixture or use chocolate graham crackers.
- You can substitute the berries with other fruits like raspberries or peaches for a different flavor profile.
