Ingredients
  • cooking spray
  • 9 graham crackers, crushed
  • ⅓ cup butter, melted
  • ⅓ cup white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons shortening, softened
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
  • 6 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

  • 2 tablespoons strawberry syrup, or to taste
Directions
