Marilyn gave me this recipe for custard and said the recipe is from a chef at the U.S. President's home, the White House.
Use as a pudding or a cake filling.
- 1/3 cup cold milk
- 1 Tbsp flour
- 5 tsp corn starch
- 1/4 cup white granulated sugar
- 2 egg yolks
- 1/3 cup hot milk
- 1/4 tsp. vanilla
- 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
Separate 2 large eggs, set aside yolks.
In mixing bowl, combine:
1/3 cup cold milk, 1 Tbsp flour, 5 tsp cornstarch.
Beat in until smooth:
1/4 cup sugar, 2 egg yolks.
Stirring constantly with wire whisk, add 1/3 cup hot milk.
Transfer mixture to heavy pot.
Bring to boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
Boil 1 minute. Take off heat.

Transfer custard mixture to clean bowl.
Refrigerate 1 hour or until custard is very cold.
