Basically, I didn't want to take the time to make custard cream, so I looked at various recipes and kept rearranging them!
This quick custard cream can be used in apple pies, cream puffs, custard puddings, etc...
If this custard cream is useful to you when you cook, I'd be so happy!

You can replace milk with heavy cream, but use less butter.
If you substitute a small amount of the flour with cornstarch, and use vanilla beans instead of vanilla oil, you will get a rich and authentic tasting custard cream. Recipe by aramaki813

Try freezing this custard, coating the surface with sugar and caramelizing the sugar using a blowtorch. It's transformed into a delicious crema Catalana!
