No-bake Christmas dessert: a creamy treat that my aunt makes every year, and everyone loves.

The base is a smooth, creamy mixture enriched with fresh and dried fruits. You can use strawberries, a mixed berry blend, peaches, bananas, or any other fruit you prefer.Almonds, walnuts, or hazelnuts are perfect choices if you want to add a bit of crunch to the treat. You can also add crushed biscuits to create a more varied texture.The result is a fresh, creamy, and delicious dessert that can be served straight from a large bowl or in individual glasses.Ingredients neededFor this creamy festive dessert, youwill need the following:500 ml milk2 egg yolks80 g sugar40 g cornstarch1 packet of vanilla sugar or 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract200 ml very cold heavy whipping cream…150 g strawberries or other red berries100 g nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, or hazelnuts)100 g plain biscuits (optional)For garnish:A few piecespageviewpro.com/9mnW16of fresh fruitChopped nutsA little grated white chocolate (optional)Preparation instructions for this delicious festive dessertsee continuation on next pagePrepare the cream. First, pour the eggyolks into a saucepan. Add the sugar and vanilla sugar, then whisk to combine.Next, add the cornstarch and mix until you have a smooth, lump-free mixture.Gradually pour in the milk while stirring constantly. This step ensures the baked goods……smooth consistency of the cream.Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook while stirring constantly. After a few minutes, the mixture will gradually begin to thicken.Once the cream has a thick, creamy consistency, remove the saucepan from the heat.Pour the cream into a clean bowl andcover the surface directly with plastic wrap. The wrap should be in contact with the cream to prevent a skin from forming.Allow it to cool completely.2. Prepare thefruit and nuts.While the cream is cooling, prepare the other ingredients.Thoroughly wash the fresh fruit, pat it dry, and cut it into small, uniform pieces.For berries, you can leave small ones whole, while larger ones can be cut into pieces.Finally, coarsely chop the almonds, walnuts, or hazelnuts. Do not grind them……into a powder; smaller chunksare better if you want to maintain a pleasant, crunchy texture.You can also lightly toast the nuts in a dry pan for a few minutes. This step is optional but helps enhance their flavor.Let them cool before adding them to the dessert. 3. Whip the creamOnce the cream base has cooled completely, pour the very cold whipping cream into a bowl.Whip it until stiff peaks form.Then, gradually fold the whipped cream into the cooled cream base; mix gently with a spatula to keep the mixture
