Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of milk.
- If you don't have cornstarch, you can use flour instead. Just be sure to whisk it into the milk until it's completely dissolved.
- For a more intense strawberry flavor, use fresh strawberries. If you're using frozen strawberries, thaw them completely before using.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the squares tough.
- Be sure to let the squares cool completely before serving. This will help them set and keep their shape.
