Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 13

½ cup salted butter, at room temperature
½ cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping (such as Cool Whip®), thawed
½ cup water
¼ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
½ (3 ounce) package strawberry-flavored gelatin (such as Jell-O®)
2 cups sliced fresh strawberries

Steps:
