Strawberry Trifle: The Best Simple and Easy Christmas Dessert

In a saucepan, mix the sweetened condensed milk and cornstarch until completely dissolved. Make sure to mix well before heating.

Add the heavy cream, milk powder, vanilla extract, and finally, the milk to the mixture in the saucepan.

Place the saucepan over heat, cooking until the cream reaches the desired consistency—it should be very creamy.

Carefully pour the cooked cream into your chosen serving dish.

Arrange the strawberries, halved, around the edges of the dish on top of the cream.

Prepare the strawberry gelatin by dissolving the package in 250 ml of hot water, then add 250 ml of cold water.

Carefully pour the prepared gelatin over the cream and strawberries in the dish to avoid disturbing the cream layer.

Refrigerate the dessert for one day, or until completely firm, allowing the gelatin to set properly.

Whip the chilled whipped cream until a creamy consistency is reached, avoiding whipping it too stiffly— aim for soft peaks.

Spread the whipped cream over the chilled dessert and decorate the surface, creating peaks with a spoon for a final touch.

Finish the decoration by adding whole or sliced strawberries on top of the whipped cream.
