Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Gather and measure all your ingredients before starting the cooking process. This will help ensure a smooth and efficient workflow.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of milk and 1 cup of heavy whipping cream.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture just to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Do not let it come to a boil. Once it reaches a simmer, remove it from the heat.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together 4 egg yolks, 1 tablespoon of corn flour, and 1/3 cup of sugar until the mixture is smooth and slightly pale.
- Gradually add a small amount of the hot milk and cream mixture to the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs. This prevents the eggs from curdling.
- Continue to slowly add the rest of the hot milk and cream while whisking continuously until fully combined.
- Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and return it to medium-low heat. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon or heat-resistant spatula, making sure to scrape the bottom and sides of the pan to prevent the custard from sticking and forming lumps.
- Cook until the custard thickens and coats the back of the spoon. This should take about 5–7 minutes. Be careful not to let it boil.
- Remove the thickened custard from the heat and immediately add 3/4 cup of finely chopped white chocolate.
- Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- For a silky smooth custard, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl. This step removes any potential lumps that may have formed.
- Allow the custard to cool slightly. You can speed up the cooling process by placing the bowl over an ice bath and stirring gently.
- Once cooled to room temperature, cover the surface of the custard with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until thoroughly chilled. The custard will continue to thicken as it cools.
- Your white chocolate custard is now ready to be served. You can enjoy it on its own or pair it with fresh fruits, berries, or crumble cookies for added texture.
Tips:
- For a smoother texture, ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before you begin mixing.
- Use high-quality white chocolate to enhance the flavor and richness of the custard.
- Continuously whisk the custard while cooking to prevent lumps and achieve a silky consistency.
- If your custard looks like it's starting to scramble, remove it from the heat and whisk vigorously to smooth it out.
- Allow the custard to chill in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours before serving to achieve the best texture.
There you have it—a simple yet luxurious White Chocolate Custard that is perfect for any occasion. With its velvety consistency and exquisite taste, it's a dessert that will leave a lasting impression. Enjoy it on its own, or pair it with fresh berries or a light drizzle of caramel sauce for a truly decadent treat. Happy cooking and bon appétit!
