By PBogho57

Fun, fast and easy to make frozen strawberries and cream desserts.

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup pecans, toasted
• 4 whole graham crackers,
• broken into pieces
• 10 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 2 egg whites
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• Juice from 1 lemon
• 4 oz. cream cheese, softened
• 2 cups strawberries, hulled and chopped

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325˚ F. Coat an 8x8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray and set aside. In a food processor, combine the pecans and graham cracker pieces.
Process until finely ground. Add the crumbs to a large bowl, along with the butter, flour and brown sugar. Mix well. Spread the crumbs evenly on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, stirring once half way.

In a medium bowl, combine egg whites and sugar. Using a hand-held mixer, mix on medium speed for 3 minutes. Add whipping cream and mix on medium speed for an additional 6 minutes. Add lemon juice and cream cheese and mix on low speed until creamy. Gently fold in strawberries with a spoon.

Press half of the crumb mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with strawberry-cream mixture, followed by the remaining crumbs. Cover with foil and freeze for a minimum of 3 hours before serving.
