Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

600ml full-fat milk
4 tsp cornflour
400ml double cream
1 egg , plus 5 yolks
1 tsp vanilla extract
140g caster sugar
4 tbsp Cointreau

Steps:

  • Splash a little milk into the cornflour until you have a smooth paste. Gradually stir in a little more milk until quite runny, then scrape into a large saucepan. Whisk in the remaining milk, cream, egg, yolks, vanilla and sugar. Put over a low-medium heat and, stirring or whisking constantly, bring just to the boil until thickened. Sieve into a jug and stir in the Cointreau. You can make this up to a day ahead - just lay a sheet of cling film directly on the surface of the custard to stop a skin forming, and chill. To serve, gently reheat.
