Creating Strawberry Heaven can be a fun process for anyone. Just follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Strawberries: In a medium bowl, combine the hulled and sliced strawberries with lemon juice. Set aside to allow the flavors to develop.
2. Make the Crust: In another bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust.
3. Whip the Cream: In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract while continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.
4. Combine Layers: Gently fold in the prepared strawberries into the whipped cream until evenly distributed.
5. Assemble the Dessert: Spoon the strawberry-cream mixture over the prepared crust, spreading it evenly.
6. Chill: Cover the dessert with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
7. Serve: After chilling, slice the dessert into wedges. Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.

These straightforward steps will lead you to create a dessert that’s both delicious and beautiful.
