Ingredients:  
Creamy Layers
2 cans of sweetened condensed milk (14 oz each)
4 cups of milk (whole milk is best)
2 tablespoons cornstarch
4 egg yolks (strained through a fine mesh strainer)
¼ teaspoon vanilla

Top Layer

2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Marias cookies or lady fingers

Sliced bananas (optional)
Strawberries (optional)
Directions:
Directions:
1. In a large pot whisk together condensed milk, 3 cups milk, egg yolks, and vanilla.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together last cup of milk with the cornstarch until dissolved.
3. Heat the mixture in a saucepan over medium/low heat, stirring constantly (it will burn if you are not careful)
4. Once the mixture is bubbling, slowly mix in the final cup of milk with the cornstarch while stirring.
5. Remove from heat once it has thickened to a pudding-like consistency
6. Pour a small amount into a 13x9 baking dish and use a spatula to spread evenly over the bottom
7. Place 1 layer of cookies or lady fingers over the cream until completely covered
8. If you want to add fruit to the Pave (I prefer strawberries in mine), add a layer of sliced fruit on top of the cookies
9. Add more cream, spread it, then another layer of cookies or lady fingers, and another layer of fruit and a final layer of cream.
10. For the whipped cream topping: In a bowl mix together heavy cream and vanilla, whip with a wire whisk. As it thickens, add powdered sugar until it reaches the sweetness level you prefer. Once it reaches whipped cream texture, stop whipping.
11. Spread across the top of the Pave
12. Cover with plastic wrap and let chill in the fridge for 3-4 hours (best overnight).
