Instructions

Step 1: In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups heavy whipping cream, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, whip on high speed for about 4 minutes until stiff peaks form.
Step 2: In a 9x9-inch square dish, spread a thin layer of whipped cream to cover the bottom.
Step 3: Place 4 graham cracker sheets side by side over the whipped cream layer.
Step 4: Spread 1/3 of the whipped cream mixture evenly over the graham crackers, then scatter 2/3 cup fresh raspberries on top.
Step 5: Repeat the layering twice more with graham crackers, whipped cream, and raspberries, finishing with a layer of whipped cream and a few raspberries for garnish.
Step 6: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the graham crackers to soften and flavors to meld.
