Notes

Recipe Copyright The Foreign Fork. For educational or personal use only.
  • Mexican crema or plain greek yogurt: You could also use sour cream as a substitute.
  • Strawberries: You could definitely use frozen strawberries as well as long as they are thawed. Keep in mind that using frozen strawberries will give you a different texture but if you don’t mind that, the flavor is still fantastic! I recommend thawing your strawberries and draining the excess liquid to prevent your crema from becoming too runny.
  • Patience is key in this recipe! The crema turns out pretty thin, but the longer you refrigerate it, the thicker it will get (thanks to the sweetened condensed milk!). Let the crema sit in the fridge for 1-2 hours for the best texture. Always serve your Fresas con Crema chilled!
