Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup dulce de leche
- 2 cups whole milk
- ¼ cup cornstarch
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 4 large egg yolks
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Prepare Your Workspace: Gather all ingredients and tools, including measuring cups and a medium saucepan.
- Combine Ingredients: In the saucepan over medium heat, whisk together whole milk and dulce de leche until blended and warmed.
- Add Cornstarch Mixture: Mix cornstarch with a bit of cold milk in a separate bowl. Gradually pour into the warm mixture while stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
- Incorporate Egg Yolks: Whisk egg yolks until smooth. Slowly add a small amount of the warm mixture to temper them before pouring back into the saucepan while stirring.
- Cook Until Thickened: Stir continuously over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes until the pudding thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- Add Flavorings and Chill: Remove from heat, stir in vanilla extract and salt, then pour into serving dishes, covering with plastic wrap to prevent skin formation. Chill for at least two hours before serving.
