Creating these Sweetheart Strawberry Crunch Bites was such a fulfilling experience. I wanted something that would incorporate fresh strawberries while also having that crunch factor to keep it interesting. After a few trials, I found that combining crushed cookies with a hint of butter truly elevates the whole flavor profile. My family couldn’t stop raving about them!

One specific detail that stands out is the use of chilled whipped cream on top. It not only enhances the aesthetic but also provides a creamy contrast that balances the sweetness of the strawberries perfectly. This little tip can transform an ordinary bite into something extraordinary!

  • 1/4 cup sugar

For the Topping

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and diced
  • 1/2 cup whipped cream

Instructions

Prepare the Base

In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and sugar until well blended. Press this mixture into the bottom of a greased 8x8 inch baking dish to create an even layer.

Bake the Base

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the crust for about 10 minutes or until lightly golden. Allow it to cool completely.

Assemble the Bites

Once the base is cool, layer the diced strawberries on top. Then, dollop the whipped cream over the strawberries.

Chill and Serve

For the best flavor, chill the assembled bites in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. Cut into squares and enjoy!

These bites are best served cold.
