Vanilla Pudding


3/4 C. Sugar
3 TBS cornstarch
3 C. Milk
4 beaten egg yolks
1 TBS butter or margarine
1 1/2 tsp vanilla

Palmer wanted dessert tonight after dinner. I didn't have anything and needed something fast so I made this wonderful recipe. I like to serve it warm with chocolate chips melting in it. Thank you Betty Crocker Cookbook. Yummy!

In a medium heavy saucepan combine sugar and cornstarch. Stir in milk. cook and stir mixture over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Remove pan from heat. Gradually stir 1 cup of milk mixture into egg yolks. Add egg mixture to milk mixture in pan. Bring milk mixture to a gentle boil; reduce heat. cook and stir for 2 minutes more.

Remove pan from heat. Stir in butter and vanilla. Pour pudding into a bowl. cover surface of pudding with plastic wrap. Serve warm or cold (do not stir during chilling).
