How to Make Strawberry Cool Whip Dessert

  1. Crush the shortbread cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the crushed cookies with the melted butter. Mix well to ensure all crumbs are evenly coated.
  3. Press the cookie crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. This forms the crust.
  4. In a large bowl, gently fold the whipped topping into the sliced strawberries until evenly combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Spread the strawberry mixture evenly over the cookie crust.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the dessert to set and the flavors to meld. The longer it chills, the better it tastes!
  7. Before serving, you can garnish with extra sliced strawberries and a sprinkle of powdered sugar (optional).
