Creamy Custard Dessert Recipe


 

Creamy Custard Dessert: Smooth and Delicious

Ingredients

  • 4 cups whole milk
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Prepare the Ingredients:

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, cornstarch, and 1 cup of the milk until smooth. Set aside.

Heat the Milk:

  1. In a large saucepan, heat the remaining 3 cups of milk over medium heat until it just begins to boil. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.

Combine and Thicken:

  1. Gradually add the hot milk to the egg mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs and prevent them from curdling.
  2. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a gentle boil. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

Add Flavorings:

  1. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until fully combined.

Strain and Pour:

  1. Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl or directly into individual serving cups to remove any lumps.

Chill:

  1. Allow the custard to cool slightly, then cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming.
  2. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until fully chilled and set.

Serve:

  1. Serve the creamy custard chilled. Optionally, you can top it with a sprinkle of cinnamon, nutmeg, or a dollop of whipped cream.

Enjoy!

Enjoy your smooth and delicious creamy custard dessert!
