Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Fresh strawberries
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 240 ml Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 100 grams Graham crackers or digestive biscuits (crushed)
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
Instructions
Wash and hull the strawberries, then slice them into thin pieces. Toss the strawberries with the granulated sugar in a bowl and let them sit for 10 minutes to macerate and release their juices.
In a separate mixing bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together using an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Set aside in the refrigerator.
In another bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers or digestive biscuits with the melted butter until the texture resembles wet sand.
To assemble the dessert, take individual serving glasses or a large trifle dish. Start with a layer of the crushed cookie mixture at the bottom, pressing lightly to form the base.
Add a layer of the whipped cream on top of the cookie base, spreading it evenly.
Add a layer of macerated strawberries on top of the whipped cream, spooning a bit of the strawberry juice for extra flavor.
Repeat the layers (cookie crumbs, whipped cream, strawberries) until the glass or dish is filled, ending with a layer of strawberries on top for presentation.
Chill the assembled desserts in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled and enjoy this light and fruity dessert!
