Directions

Step1

In a saucepan, add strawberries, sugar, milk, and cornstarch. Place it on medium heat and keep stirring all the time so no lumps form. Cook until the mixture becomes thick and smooth.

Step2

Add butter and mix until it melts completely. Pour this pink mixture into your serving dish and spread it evenly. Let it cool for a few minutes until slightly set (not fully cold).

Step3

In another saucepan, mix milk, sugar, and cornstarch. Cook on medium heat and keep stirring continuously. When it becomes thick and creamy, turn off the heat. Add vanilla and butter, and mix well until smooth.

Step4

Gently pour the vanilla mixture over the slightly cooled strawberry layer. Pour slowly so the layers stay separate and neat.

Step5

Let the dessert cool at room temperature for a while. Sprinkle cocoa powder evenly on top. Place it in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or until fully set.

Enjoy!!!
