Strawberry Crunch

Prep Time 10 minutes
Yield: 2 cups
This strawberry crunch is an easy, 3-ingredient recipe that can be used for cakes, cupcakes, cheesecakes, ice cream cakes, and to eat with a spoon. This recipe is no bake and gets its strawberry flavor and beautiful pink color from freeze-dried strawberries!

Equipment

  • Food processor

Ingredients 

  • 2 cups vanilla sandwich cookies approximately 24-28 cookies
  • 1 oz freeze-dried strawberries
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter melted

Instructions

  • Add vanilla sandwich cookies to a food processor. Pulse the cookies to create coarse crumbs. Pour the crumbs into a large mixing bowl and set aside.
  • Add freeze-dried strawberries to a food processor. Pulse the strawberries to create a fine powder. Add the strawberry powder to the bowl with the crushed vanilla cookies.
  • Mix the cookie crumbs and strawberry powder until well combined.
  • Add melted unsalted butter and mix until the crumbs are well coated in the butter. The mixture may get clumpy - break the clumps up with the back of a spoon.
  • Spread onto a baking sheet pan and allow the strawberry shortcake crumble to dry for about 15 minutes. 
  • Use immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
