How to Make Layered Strawberry Squares
- In a medium bowl, sprinkle gelatin over boiling water. Stir until completely dissolved.
- Add cold water and stir to combine. Refrigerate until slightly thickened, about 15-20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, gently toss sliced strawberries with 1/4 cup sugar. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, gently fold the thawed whipped topping into the thickened gelatin until well combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the sugared strawberries.
- Arrange 9 graham crackers in the bottom of a 9x9 inch baking pan. You might need to break some crackers to get a nice even layer.
- Spread half of the gelatin mixture evenly over the graham cracker layer.
- Arrange the remaining 3 graham crackers on top of the gelatin layer.
- Spread the remaining gelatin mixture evenly over the second graham cracker layer.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until completely set.
- Once firm, cut into squares and garnish with the reserved strawberries before serving.
