No Bake 'Cake'

Blog post #161 of 365

Again an easy recipe that will please the berry lover in your house but won't heat up your kitchen.

You'll need:
3 lbs sliced ripe strawberries (not too ripe though)
16 ounces of whipped topping (2 tubs)
1 14 ounce box of graham crackers
shaved dark chocolate or you can use chocolate syrup (ice cream topping type)

Spread a thin layer of topping on the bottom of a 9 x 13 inch baking pan. Place a layer of graham crackers across the layer of whipped topping. add a thin layer of Whipped topping over the graham crackers and then a layer of strawberries. Repeat three times. (If you need the help that will be 4 layers total. The top layer of graham crackers could be short but it will be alright or you could buy extra if you are the perfectionist type.) You will end with a layer of strawberries on the top.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. The crackers will soften completely.

Before serving drizzle a little chocolate syrup over the top or dust with some dark chocolate shavings. (I prefer the dark chocolate shavings.) Yummy on days one and two. Still tastes good on day three but the berries will begin to look awful.
