This simple yet delicious recipe combines the smoothness of milk, the richness of eggs, and the aromatic essence of vanilla and nutmeg. It's a versatile dessert that can be enjoyed on its own or used as a base for other sweets.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Measure out 2 cups of milk and set aside.
- Crack 3 eggs into a mixing bowl.
- Measure 1 teaspoon of stevia leaf sweetener.
- Measure 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract.
- Measure 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg.
- In a medium saucepan, pour in the 2 cups of milk.
- Add the 1 teaspoon of stevia leaf sweetener to the milk.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally and heat the milk until it is hot but not boiling. This will take about 5-7 minutes.
- While the milk is heating, whisk the 3 eggs in the mixing bowl until they are well combined and slightly frothy.
- Once the milk is hot, remove it from the heat.
- Gradually add about 1/2 cup of the hot milk into the whisked eggs, whisking constantly to avoid cooking the eggs.
- Slowly pour the tempered egg mixture back into the remaining hot milk in the saucepan, whisking continuously.
- Place the saucepan back over medium-low heat.
- Cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens to a custard-like consistency. This should take around 5-10 minutes. Do not let the mixture boil.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat once the mixture has thickened.
- Stir in the 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract and 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg until well combined.
- Pour the dessert cream into a serving dish or individual serving cups.
- Let it cool to room temperature, then cover the dish with plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the dessert cream is fully chilled.
- Once chilled, the Vanilla Dessert Cream is ready to serve.
- Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of ground nutmeg or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch.
Tips:
- To ensure a smooth texture, whisk the eggs thoroughly before adding them to the milk mixture.
- Use high-quality vanilla extract for a more intense and pure vanilla flavor.
- For a creamier consistency, consider using whole milk.
- You can adjust the sweetness by adding more or less stevia leaf sweetener according to your taste.
- Serve the dessert cream chilled for the best experience.
