Chill Phony Whipped Cream.

Meanwhile, wash strawberries, reserving six whole berries with hulls for garnish. Slice and quarter remaining berries and mix with sweetener to substitute for 1 tablespoon sugar; add Grand Marnier; mix well, cover, and set aside.

Beat together the eggs and the salt. Scald milk in the top of a double boiler. Pour hot milk on top of egg mixture very slowly, stirring constantly.

Return mixture to the top of the double boiler. Place over simmering water (water should not touch bottom of top part). Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture coats a metal spoon.

Arrange 16 vanilla wafers on bottom and around sides of a large glass dessert bowl (or three in each of six individual dessert servers). Spread half of the strawberries on top, then half of the custard mixture. Repeat with remaining vanilla wafers, then strawberries, and finally custard.

Cover with clear plastic. Chill for several hours.

When ready to serve, garnish with spoonfuls of remaining Phony Whipped Cream and reserved whole strawberries.

This recipe yields 6 servings. Serving size: 1/2 cup custard plus 4 vanilla wafers, garnished with whipped cream and strawberries.
