 Ingredients You’ll Need

(Serves 2 — double or triple as needed)

• 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar or honey (optional, adjust to taste)
• 1/2 cup whipped cream (store-bought or homemade)
• 1/4 cup Greek yogurt or vanilla pudding
• 2 crushed graham crackers or digestive biscuits
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• A pinch of lemon zest (optional, but adds brightness)
• Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
• 2-Minute Instructions

You don’t need a stove, blender, or oven. Just a bowl and a spoon!

1. Prepare the strawberries:
   In a bowl, toss the sliced strawberries with the sugar (or honey) and vanilla extract. Let sit for 1 minute to release juices.
2. Mix the cream base:
   In another bowl, mix whipped cream and Greek yogurt together. This creates a balanced texture—light, fluffy, and slightly tangy.
3. Assemble your dessert:
   In serving cups or jars, layer as follows:
   • A spoonful of the cream base
   • A layer of strawberries
   • A sprinkle of crushed graham crackers
   • Repeat until the glass is full.
4. Garnish and serve:
   Add a final swirl of cream, a strawberry slice on top, a dash of lemon zest, and a mint leaf if desired.

 Tips for the Perfect No-Bake Strawberry Dessert

• Use chilled ingredients for a more refreshing bite.
• Swap the crackers with Oreo crumbs, cornflakes, or crushed nuts for a new flavor twist.
• Make it dairy-free: Use coconut cream and plant-based yogurt.
• Want more protein? Add a scoop of vanilla protein powder to the yogurt mix.

 Variations to Try

1. Chocolate Strawberry Delight
   Add chocolate chips or drizzle with melted chocolate.
2. Strawberry Shortcake Cups
   Replace crackers with sponge cake pieces for a shortcake-inspired twist.
3. Strawberry Cheesecake in a Cup
   Add a spoonful of cream cheese to the yogurt mixture for a cheesecake-like texture.

 Fun Fact

Did you know strawberries are one of the only fruits with seeds on the outside? They’re packed with Vitamin C and antioxidants—so you’re not just indulging your sweet tooth, you’re doing your body a favor!

 Storage Tips

This dessert is best enjoyed immediately, but you can prep the layers in advance:

• Store the cream mix and strawberries separately in the fridge.
• Assemble only when ready to serve to keep the crackers crunchy.

 Serving Suggestions

• Serve in small mason jars for a cute, rustic look.
• Add mini spoons and serve at parties as a “2-minute strawberry shooter.”
• Freeze for 15 minutes before serving for an ice-cream-like feel.
