Description
A light and delicious strawberry dessert made with whipped cream and gluten-free cookies.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1–1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup + 2 Tablespoons powdered sugar
- 12 oz crispy gluten free sugar cookies (or gluten free graham crackers)
- 1–1/2 lbs strawberries (trimmed and sliced)
Instructions
- Place the bowl and whisk attachment of an electric mixer, or a large glass bowl and the beaters if using a hand mixer, in the freezer to chill for at least 10 minutes.
- Add heavy whipping cream and vanilla to the chilled bowl then whip on low speed while gradually adding powdered sugar.
- Gradually increase the speed as the whipped cream thickens then whip until the cream can hold its shape but is not lumpy.
- Spread a thin layer of whipped cream into the bottom of an 8×8″ baking dish.
- Layer in 9 cookies, spread on another layer of whipped cream, then top with 1/3 of the strawberries.
- Repeat layers – cookies, whipped cream, and strawberries – two more times to create three layers total (you might have a little extra whipped cream at the end).
- Cover dish with saran wrap then refrigerate overnight.
- When ready to serve, slice then serve.
Notes
- Use gluten-free cookies or graham crackers to keep the dessert gluten-free.
- For best results, chill the bowl and whisk attachment before whipping the cream.
