The Strawberry Vanilla Cream Serenade is a dreamy layered dessert featuring fresh strawberries, whipped vanilla cream, and a buttery graham cracker base. Each spoonful offers a delightful mix of creamy, fruity, and crunchy textures — a perfect no-bake treat for any occasion.
Prepare all ingredients: wash and slice the strawberries, melt the butter, and measure the remaining components.
In a medium bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Do not over-whip.
In another bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until evenly combined and crumbly.
Press a spoonful of the crumb mixture into the bottom of dessert cups to form a base.
Add a layer of whipped cream over the crumb base, followed by a layer of sliced strawberries.
Repeat the layers until the cups are full, finishing with whipped cream on top.
Garnish each cup with a whole strawberry or mint leaf for decoration.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
Notes
For a vegan version, substitute coconut cream for the whipped cream and use gluten-free graham crackers. You can also mix in raspberries, blueberries, or peaches for added variety.
