Classic Vanilla Custard is one of my favourite desserts from my childhood. Milk, cream, vanilla and egg yolks are combined to make a thick, rich mixture that can be served hot or cold, poured over pies, puddings or cakes, or simply served by itself - give it a go!

Set the liquid mixture aside and cool for 10 minutes. Strain the milk mixture into a heat-proof jug.

step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the Eggs (6), Caster Sugar (1/2 cup), and Corn Starch (2 tsp) together.

Add milk mixture to egg yolk mixture and whisk together. Then return to pan and stir over medium heat stir for 10-15 minutes. To test the custard's thickness, coat the back of a spoon and make a line against it with your finger. If the line holds, it's ready!
