Ingredients

For the Custard:

• 3 cups whole milk

• ½ cup granulated sugar

• 3 tablespoons cornstarch

• 3 egg yolks

• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Layers:

• 1½ packages of plain tea biscuits (such as Marie or Petit Beurre)

• 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

• 1 cup heavy cream (optional, whipped for extra creaminess)

Instructions

1. Make the Custard:
   In a medium saucepan over medium heat, whisk together the milk, sugar, cornstarch, and egg yolks. Stir continuously until the mixture begins to thicken and coat the back of a spoon (about 7–10 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract. Let the custard cool slightly, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.

2. Prepare the Base Layer:
   In a glass or ceramic dish (9×9 inch or similar), begin by spreading a thin layer of custard to coat the bottom. Place a layer of tea biscuits on top, side by side.

3. Layer the Ingredients:
   Spread a generous layer of custard over the biscuits, followed by a layer of sliced strawberries. Repeat the layers: biscuits, custard, and strawberries, until all ingredients are used. Finish with a smooth layer of custard on top.

4. Optional Whipped Cream Layer:
   For extra richness, you can fold 1 cup of whipped cream into the cooled custard before layering, or add whipped cream on top before serving.

5. Chill:
   Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. This allows the biscuits to soften and the flavors to meld beautifully.

6. Serve:
   Slice into squares or scoop with a spoon. Serve chilled and optionally garnish with fresh strawberry slices or a sprinkle of crushed biscuits on top.
