This old fashioned no bake strawberry icebox cake recipe is a delicious layers of graham crackers, cool whip and sweet slices of strawberries. As the ingredients sit in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight, these elements slowly merge into a moist, creamy cake texture that is reminiscent of an eclair or a much fancier meringue dacquoise.

Yes, this is a favorite summertime dessert but honestly it can be enjoyed any season of the year and especially for romantic evening with that special one.

Ingredients:

fresh strawberries, washed and patted dry
heavy cream
powdered sugar
vanilla
rosewater
graham crackers
dark chocolate

The touch of rosewater enhances the flavor of the strawberries in a very special way that will remind you of a high class culinary adventure. Look to the website link at the bottom of the page for full recipe.

I would like to add that you can slowly drizzle simple ganache sauce over the strawberry icebox cake.

Simple ganache:
2 oz semi sweet chocolate morsels
¼ cup heavy whipping cream

Instructions on how to make chocolate ganache

Heat ¼ cup heavy whipping cream in a small, heavy saucepan over medium-low heat. Once it bubbles, turn off the heat. Add chocolate and let stand for 3 minutes. Whisk mixture until it’s thick and glossy. Let it cool to lukewarm and drizzle ganache over dessert. Use a plastic baggie with tiny bit of tip cut off to drizzle the ganache upon the icebox cake.
