- Set the medium bowl aside to thicken while preparing the strawberry layer.
Prepare The Strawberry Layer
- Remove the stems from the strawberries and cut off any bad spots.
- In small bowl or on a plate, mash the strawberries with a fork. If possible keep mashing until the berries are almost pureed.
- Gently blend the pureed strawberries and strawberry extract into the smaller bowl with the filling. This is your top layer.

- Next, gently scoop the strawberry layer onto the bottom layer.
