Making these Frozen Strawberry Lemonade Bars is straightforward. Follow these simple steps to create your delicious treats:

1. Prepare the Strawberries: In a blender, combine the chopped strawberries and blend until smooth. Set aside.
2. Make the Lemonade Mixture: In a saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
3. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the fresh lemon juice, blended strawberries, heavy whipping cream, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
4. Add Sugar Water: Slowly pour the cooled sugar-water mixture into the bowl, stirring continuously until everything is fully incorporated.
5. Taste Test: At this point, taste the mixture and adjust sweetness or tartness as desired by adding more sugar or lemon juice. This step is important to ensure your bars have the right flavor balance.
6. Pour into Pan: Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper and pour the mixture into it, smoothing the top with a spatula.
7. Freeze: Cover the pan with plastic wrap and place it in the freezer. Allow it to freeze for at least 4 to 6 hours, or overnight for the best results.
8. Cut into Bars: Once fully frozen, remove the pan from the freezer. Lift the parchment paper to remove the frozen block. Cut into squares or rectangles using a sharp knife.
9. Serve: Return the bars to the freezer for a few minutes, then serve immediately or store them in an airtight container in the freezer until ready to serve.
