Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 eggs
1/2 cup white sugar (can be superfine)
2 quarts milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
1/2 cup freshly whipped cream

Steps:

  • Place the eggs and sugar in a pan and whisk until light-colored and frothy.
  • Whisk in 2 cups of the milk until thoroughly blended.
  • Place the pan over medium heat, continuing to stir until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a wooden spoon -- about 5 minutes. If you are using a thermometer, the temperature should reach 160 degrees.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and let it stand for about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the remaining 6 cups of milk, vanilla extract and nutmeg.
  • Refrigerate at least 2 hours to allow to cool completely before serving.
