Ingredients
2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the milk, sugar, cornstarch, and salt over medium heat.
Cook while stirring continuously until the mixture thickens and comes to a gentle boil.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolks until well blended. Slowly pour in a little of the hot pudding mixture to temper the yolks, then whisk this mixture back into the saucepan.
Continue to cook for another 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat, and stir in the butter and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the pudding into individual serving dishes and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
Notes
For a richer flavor, consider using half-and-half instead of whole milk.
Top the pudding with whipped cream or fresh berries for added flavor!
