You Will Need:
3 ¾ cups heavy cream, divided
2 pounds fresh strawberries, washed and dried
1/3 cup powdered sugar
24 to 28 graham crackers
2 ounces of dark chocolate, finely chopped
1 teaspoon of vanilla
½ teaspoon of rose water
How To:
Cut the strawberries into thin slices.
Using a hand mixer, whip 3 ½ cups of cream until it doubles in sizes.
Add sugar, vanilla and rose water and whip to combine.
Spread a spoonful of whipped cream at the bottom of the baking pan and lay six graham crackers.
Cover the top of the graham crackers with a bit more whipped cream and place a single layer of strawberries. Repeat the method until you get four layers of graham crackers.
Spread the whipped cream on the top and swirl it lightly using the spoon. Add a few more strawberries on the top.
To make the ganache, heat ¼ cup of cream and then pour over the chopped chocolate. Leave it to stand for a few minutes and then mix until you get a thick, glossy and smooth mixture.
Drizzle the ganache with a spoon or use a squeeze bottle to drizzle.
Refrigerate the dessert for 4 hours or until the crackers soften completely.
