Instructions
Making the No Bake Summer Berry Icebox Cake is as easy as pie. Follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Cream Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Continue beating until stiff peaks form.
2. Mix in Yogurt: Gently fold in the yogurt until well combined. This adds a delightful tanginess to the cream.
3. Layer the Cake:
– Start by placing a layer of graham crackers at the bottom of a rectangular dish.
– Spread a portion of the cream mixture over the graham crackers, smoothing it out evenly.
– Add a layer of mixed berries on top of the cream.
4. Repeat the Layers: Continue layering graham crackers, cream, and berries until you reach the top of the dish, finishing with a layer of cream. Make sure to save some berries for decoration.
5. Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours or overnight for best results.
6. Serve: Once chilled and set, remove from the refrigerator. Garnish with any remaining berries and fresh mint leaves if desired. Slice and serve.
These uncomplicated steps will guide you in creating a remarkably satisfying dessert that’s elegant, refreshing, and truly enjoyable.
