Graham Cracker Icebox Cake is a crowd pleaser. No baking required, creamy vanilla pudding and fresh berries make this cake the ultimate summer treat.

This is a twist on the classic icebox cake from the 1930’s it’s a bit healthier and made with vegan ingredients.

Why Make Graham Cracker Icebox Cake

For starters, this Vegan Graham Cracker Icebox Cake is easy. I mean really EASY. It’s a great “cake” to have the kids help with. There is no baking required at all. It’s perfect for a hot summer day and the mix ins and toppings are endless. You can use any berries you have access to or skip them if needed. You will love this dreamy light cake. I used all vegan ingredients but you can also use regular milk and whipped cream.

Ingredients Needed

Graham Crackers. The base of this cake. One box should be enough for this recipe.

Vegan Whipped Topping. There are several brands out there and anyone will do. You will need one full tub (typically about 10 oz)

Almond Milk. Or any nut milk of choice.

Instant Vanilla Pudding. The best part of the cake. Use this brand if you want the cleanest pudding Most all pudding is dairy free/vegan but brand has very clean simple ingredients. You can also use Lemon or chocolate pudding if you’d like! Skies the limit for flavor combos.

Vanilla Extract.

Fresh Berries. I used strawberries but any will work.

Step One. In a large bowl, whisk instant pudding mix, almond milk and vanilla extract together for a few minutes. Fold in ½ of the whipped topping from the container.
