Wash and hull the strawberries. Slice them into halves or quarters and set aside.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the bittersweet chocolate chips in 20-second intervals, stirring between intervals, until smooth. Let the chocolate cool slightly.
In a medium mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to whip the heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then whip again until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix until the texture resembles damp sand.
To assemble the dessert, layer the crushed graham cracker mixture at the bottom of 4 serving glasses or bowls. Use the back of a spoon to press it down gently.
Next, drizzle a spoonful of melted chocolate over the graham cracker crust in each glass.
Add a layer of sliced strawberries, followed by a dollop of whipped cream on top.
Repeat the layering process (crust, chocolate, strawberries, whipped cream) until the glasses are full, finishing with a dollop of whipped cream on top.
Garnish with a drizzle of melted chocolate and a whole strawberry, if desired.
Chill the prepared desserts in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
