Whisking constantly, cook over low heat, until the mixture comes to a simmer. Cook for one minute. Remove it from the heat and add the butter and vanilla. Set aside to cool.
  • Next, mix the strawberries with the sugar. Set aside.
  • Then, in an electric mixer, beat the heavy cream and sugar together, until it's whipped together.
  • Top each cake round with a spoonful of berries and some Vanilla Cream. Top each trifle off with some whipped cream.
