Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 container (8 oz) frozen whipped topping, thawed, divided
  • 6 oz strawberry gelatin
  • 2 cups boiling water
  • 16 oz frozen sliced strawberries

Method
 

  1. Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press firmly into a 9x13 inch pan. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
  2. Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Fold in half of the whipped topping. Spread over the chilled crust.
  3. Dissolve gelatin in boiling water. Stir in frozen strawberries until the mixture begins to thicken. Refrigerate until the consistency of egg whites, about 1 hour. Spoon over the cream cheese layer, cover, and refrigerate at least 4 hours until fully set.
  4. Just before serving, spread the remaining whipped topping over the dessert. Slice and serve cold.

Notes

Chill time not included in prep: the dessert needs at least 4 hours to set, overnight is even better. If you want a brighter strawberry pop, scatter a few fresh sliced strawberries on top with the final whipped layer.
