× prettygirlfood: Strawberry IceBox Cake Ingredients2 pounds fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced3 1/4 cups whipping cream, divided1/3 cup confectioners sugar1 teaspoon vanilla24 to 28 whole graham crackers2 ounces dark chocolate, finely choppedDirectionsWith a hand mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer, whip 3 cups of cream until it just holds stiff peaks.  Add the confectioners sugar, and vanilla and whip to combine.  Spread a small spoonful of whipped cream on the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking pan, or a similarly-sized platter. Lay down six graham crackers. Lightly cover the top of the graham crackers with more whipped cream, and then a single layer of strawberries. Repeat three times, until you have four layers of graham crackers. Spread the last of the whipped cream over the top.To make the ganache, heat the cream until bubbles form around the edges, then pour over the chopped chocolate. Let it stand for a few minutes, then whisk until the mixture is thick and glossy. Drizzle over the layered cake. Refrigerate for at least four hours, or until the crackers have softened completely. Garnish with additional berries.Let’s DishThis strawberry filled no-bake dessert has summer written all over it. And the chocolate drizzle is a perfect compliment to the berries and whipped cream.   It’s so easy to put together and looks beautiful too.  Just make sure to refrigerate it long enough that the graham crackers soften into delicious cake-like layers.   This doesn’t keep well for more than a day or so, but you shouldn’t have a problem eating it all before then!
