Pour Custard into Crust: Once the custard is thick, pour it over the cooled crust. Use a spatula to spread it evenly. Let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
Step 4: Prepare the Topping
Whip the Cream: In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the heavy whipping cream until it starts to thicken. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then continue beating until stiff peaks form.
Spread the Whipped Cream: Once the custard has set, spread the whipped cream over the top of the custard layer evenly.
Step 5: Serve
Cut and Serve: Remove the dessert from the refrigerator. Use a sharp knife to cut it into squares. For an elegant presentation, garnish with fresh berries or a dusting of powdered sugar before serving.
Presentation Tips:
Garnishing: Place each square on a decorative dessert plate. Add a raspberry or a few mint leaves beside each piece for a pop of color.
Serving Style: Consider serving with a drizzle of chocolate or caramel sauce for a rich touch.
Plate Arrangement: Arrange multiple squares on a large platter for an impressive display at parties.
