Ingredients
- 8 lrg Egg yolks
- 4 c. Lowfat milk
- 1/4 c. Cornstarch
- 1 c. Sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
Directions
- Cinnamon for dusting or possibly 1 c. sugar for the crust
- 1. In a bowl, mix the egg yolks with 1 c. of the lowfat milk. In another bowl, mix the cornstarch with another c. of lowfat milk, then add in the sugar and the remaining lowfat milk. Strain the egg-yolk mix through a fine strainer into the cornstarch mix and stir to combine well.
- 2. In a heavy, medium-size saucepan over medium heat, cook the mix, stirring constantly, till thickened, 20 min. Remove from heat, add in the vanilla, and stir to blend.
- 3. Pour into a serving bowl, let cold to room temperature, cover, and chill 2 hrs or possibly overnight.
- Before serving, dust with cinnamon. If you are caramelizing the custard, cook the sugar in a small, heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly after it starts to bubble, till it is golden, 6 to 8 min. Drizzle it over the custard and chill till the caramel sets. If you want a crisp sugar crust, pour the custard into an ovenproof mold, and chill as directed above. Before serving, sprinkle the sugar over the top, and place under a preheated broiler just till the sugar melts. Watch closely, as the sugar burns quickly. Serve within 10 to 15 min.
