A slice of strawberry icebox cake with layers of cream and strawberries

Chill it overnight if you can — the longer it sits, the more cake-like it gets.

How to make it

Whip the cream. If using heavy cream, whip it with the powdered sugar and vanilla till soft peaks. If using whipped topping, skip this.
Layer it. In the dish, layer graham crackers, cream, and strawberries. Repeat till you run out, ending with cream.
Chill. Cover and chill at least 4 hours, or overnight.
Serve. Slice and serve cold, topped with extra strawberries.
