Blanca's Rich and Creamy Vanilla Pudding image

My mom created this recipe for vanilla pudding. I think it's richer and sweeter than most vanilla pudding recipes. It's delicious!

Time 30m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 cups whole milk
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
3 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon vanilla
cinnamon, for dusting (optional)
raisins (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the cornstarch and salt. Slowly whisk in the whole milk then the sweetened condensed milk until thoroughly combined.
  • Heat the mixture over medium heat, whisking constantly and scraping sides and bottom of saucepan.
  • When mixture begins to thicken a bit, add about 1 cup of it to the egg yolks. Mix well and then add the egg mixture back to saucepan.
  • Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened.
  • Strain the pudding through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl, scraping with a rubber spatula to pass the pudding through. (I know this is an extra step, but it removes any bits of cooked egg, so the pudding is smooth.).
  • Stir the butter and vanilla into the pudding until the butter is melted.
  • To prevent a skin from forming, press a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding or you can dust it with a little bit of cinnamon and put some raisins on top like my mom does. Refrigerate until set, about 3 hours.
