Date & Time changes when opening Event created in Outlook

Hello,
 
I have a question related to a Power Automate flow that is almost working fine. This is what it does:
 
When an item is created in Sharepoint, it creates an event in Outlook Calendar with the data of the sharepoint's list, and it it sends an email with same data. Now, here is the weird thing, event created looks fine and email looks fine (speaking about the date & time) but if I open the event created in outlook's calendar, time doesn't match:
 
 
 
So, I guess I should add the following expression to my flow for my Date & EndDate values: convertFromUtc(item()?['Date'],'Central Standard Time','MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm tt') but I don't know where or how. My flow looks like this:
 
 
 
I'm a rookie at Power Automate, so please explain me like you would explain to a 10 years old child.
 
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

    Use ConvertFromUTC() to convert your UTC Start and End times to a specific Timezone. Then set the TimeZone Field to that TimeZone in the Create Event field.  This screenshot shows the settings for a meeting 24 hours from now in the Central US timezone.
