No Bake Strawberry Icebox Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Wash and slice berries.
• With a hand mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer, whip 3 1/4 cups of cream until it just holds stiff peaks.
• Add the powdered sugar, vanilla, and almond extract (if using) and whip to combine.
• Cover bottom of pan with graham cracker sheets.
• Lightly cover the top of the graham crackers with a thin layer of whipped cream, and then a single layer of sliced strawberries. Repeat the layers 2 more times. Spread the last of the whipped cream over the top and swirl it lightly with a spoon. Add a few more strawberries.
• To make the ganache, heat the remaining cream until bubbles form around the edges, then pour over the chocolate. Let it stand for a few minutes, then whisk until the mixture is thick and glossy.
• Drizzle this over the layered dessert with a spoon, or transfer to a squeeze bottle and use that to drizzle.
• Refrigerate for at least four hours, or until the crackers have softened completely.
• Garnish with additional berries.
