Great dessert and easy to make! DH loved this and wants me to make it again soon. I didnt do to well when unmolding but that didnt affect the flavor at all. Topped with remaining strawberries before serving. Made and reviewed for Vegetarian/Vegan Swap.

I made this with the fresh strawberries from my garden. But made the big mistake of leaving it in the hot water to unmold it a bit too long, so stuck it back in the fridge to set it back again. Sorry the pic looks so bad. But this was absolutely delicious dispite my error. Thank you for sharing this recipe.
