Strawberry Icebox Cake
A few notes:
- To simplify this icebox cake further I used Cool Whip instead of making my own whipped cream.
- For the flavor I used fresh strawberries and pureed them, but any type of berry or fruit will work.
- For ease of layering, I used a pastry bag to pipe the strawberry whipped cream layer.
- This can be assembled two days in advance (up to the point prior to frosting) and kept tightly wrapped in plastic.
Strawberry Icebox Cake
Makes an 8X8-inch cake | Preparation: Line an 8×8-inch cake pan with plastic wrap overlapping all the sides by at least one inch all around.Ingredients:
- 6 cups (16oz. container) of Cool Whip, divided use
- 2 cups pureed strawberries (about 4-5 cups of whole strawberries)
- 12 graham crackers
Instructions:
- Place 4 cups of Cool Whip in a bowl and gently fold in the pureed strawberries.
- Place graham crackers on bottom of cake pan. Pipe approximately one and a half cups of strawberry/Cool Whip mixture on top. Use a spatula to smooth out the whipped cream surface. Continue layering, by alternating graham crackers and whipped cream until the cake is completed. Move the cake to the freezer and chill for at least 30mins.
- Remove the cake from freezer and cut in half. Stack the cut portions one on top of another for a tall, narrow cake. Alternately, keep the cake as originally assembled for a 8×8-inch square cake. Finish by frosting the cake with the remaining two cups of Cool Whip.
