PERFECT NO BAKE DESSERT FOR SUMMER

This Strawberry Shortcake Icebox Cake is the perfect dessert for summer and is (pretty much) no bake – making it super simple to put together. It’s a great, easy way to serve strawberry shortcake and would be a great addition to a summer potluck. I hope you enjoy it!

The shortcake comes from crushed Golden Oreos. Shortbread would also be amazing. Crush the cookies and line the pan with them.
Mix up some instant vanilla pudding. You could use sugar-free if you want, or use lemon or cheesecake flavor. Fold in some whipped topping. Layer that mixture with a pound of fresh strawberries.
Then top the whole thing with more whipped topping and more crushed cookies.
The hardest part is waiting for it to set. You can see from the photos I didn’t wait long enough. #doasIsaynotasIdo

(Yes, you can use fresh whipped cream. See the recipe notes.)
