Ingredients

• 3 1/2 cups of whipped cream, divided (2 cups of 35% cream, 1/3 cup of powdered sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract)
• One pack of vanilla pudding
• 2 cups of cold milk
• 12 Graham crackers
• 2 1/2 cups mix of fresh sliced strawberries, divided

2. In a large bowl, make the pudding according to the instructions on the package using the 2 cups of cold milk. Let it thicken for 5 minutes, then fold in 3 cups of whipped cream.
3. In an 8 x 8-inch dish, spread a thin layer of cream.
4. Place Graham crackers on top, covering the whipped cream well.
5. Add half of the cream mixture on top and layer with sliced strawberries.
6. Repeat the previous layers, finishing with the whipped cream.
7. Decorate with your prettiest strawberries.
8. Sprinkle some Graham cracker crumbs on top.
9. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours.

A guaranteed success!

Note: you can replace the strawberries with the fruit of your choice; a blueberry and raspberry version would be perfect depending on the seasonal fruits!
