A rich, but easy-to-make custard sauce, cooked on the stove top. Delightful as a dessert on its own, or served as a compliment to another dessert, you will love this.
Ingredients
- 12 egg yolks shopping list
- 8 oz sugar shopping list
- 1 quart milk shopping list
- 1 tbsp vanilla shopping list
How to make it
- combine egg yolks & sugar in a stainless steel bowl
- whip until thick & light
- scald the milk in a boiling water bath, or over direct heat
- very gradually pour the scalded milk into the egg yolk mixture, stirring constantly with the whisk
- set this bowl over simmering water
