Step 2: Whip the Cream Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric mixer or whisk until it forms soft peaks.
Gradually pour in the condensed milk and vanilla essence. Continue whipping until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and forms stiff peaks. Be careful not to over-whip.

Step 3: Layer the Pudding

Step 4: Chill the Pudding
Place the layered Serradura puddings in the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight. This allows the biscuit crumbs to soften and the flavours to meld together.

Step 5: Garnish and Serve

If you like, add a light dusting of cocoa powder or sprinkle with chocolate shavings for extra flavour and decoration.
