Homemade Vanilla Pudding
The kids and I are making macarons today and needed something to do with the extra egg yolks. After looking through some pudding recipes, this is what I threw together. It turned out so yummy, plus it's nice and creamy. Make sure to use good quality vanilla extract (or the seeds from a vanilla bean if you have any on hand).

Cooking Instructions
- 1
In a medium bowl, whisk together the beaten egg yolks, sugar, cornstarch and salt....it will be pretty lumpy, but that's fine. Set it aside. Place the milk and cream into a large pot over medium heat. Let it heat to a simmer, stirring often, but do not let it come to a boil. Once it begins to simmer, remove it from the heat.

Slowly add in 1 cup of the heated milk into the egg yolk mixture while whisking constantly to temper the eggs. Once it's all whisked together, whisk the egg mixture back into the pot of heated milk and return it to the burner. Now, cook this mixture over medium heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring nearly constantly, until it is nice and thick.

Once thickened, remove the pot from the heat and immediately stir in the butter. Once it's melted in, stir in the vanilla extract. Now run the pudding through a fine mesh sieve with a rubber spatula to remove any lumps and to get the smoothest pudding.

At this point, either keep it in the bowl you strained it into or separate it into individual serving cups. Either way, you're going to cover the pudding with plastic wrap. You want to press the plastic wrap lightly onto the surface of the pudding, to prevent a skin from forming.

Let it chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours before serving. Then eat it plain or top with some yummy toppings (pictured here with chocolate curls and banana slices). It'll last up to 3 days in the fridge.

In the process of making a pudding cake, I really got into pudding. I like the feel when you put it in your mouth. So I've been making pudding everyday. I wonder how long I'll be into pudding.I included a link for a caramel sauce recipe. Be sure not to heat the milk more than about 50℃. The cooking times may vary depending on the oven used so please adjust accordingly. If you use heavy cream instead of milk you get a lighter taste. Please make by oven or pot, whichever you prefer.

Creamy Rich Vanilla Custard Pudding Creamy Rich Vanilla Custard Pudding
I found some really cute pudding containers, so I made a rich, creamy pudding that matches them.Watch the heat level when you steam the puddings. If the heat is too high, the puddings will develop air bubbles and lose their creamy, smooth texture. In addition, the bottoms and sides will become overcooked and leathery. Be sure to steam them over very low heat! The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the containers you're using, so please adjust while observing how the puddings are cooking. For three 90 ml containers worth. Recipe by Pu-kosan -
Best HOMEMADE Banana Pudding Best HOMEMADE Banana Pudding
It's a no-bake vanilla pudding recipe that fits perfectly with Bananas and Vanilla Wafers. Can add 1/3 cup Cocoa for Chocolate Pudding (would add along with milk, I believe). Was on an old recipe card from my grandmother, and it's a recipe that has stood the test of time. Try it for yourself and see! There's no other recipe like it.NOTE: The picture has the wafers crumbled as my mother in law doesn't have teeth. If you leave them whole, they will soften in the fridge but I didn't want to take a chance with her. Personally, I like them whole.
