Steps

1

Heat the milk with the sugar, setting aside one cup of milk in a separate bowl. Add the cornstarch and egg yolks to the reserved milk and blend until smooth.
2

Once the milk and sugar are hot (you can add a cinnamon stick if you like), pour in the cornstarch and egg yolk mixture. Whisk vigorously, and when the mixture thickens, spread it onto a tray to cool.
3

Once cooled, cut into pieces, coat each piece in flour and beaten egg, and fry in plenty of oil. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon.
