Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Cornstarch Pudding.
Step 1
Start by grabbing a medium microwave-safe bowl. In it, combine the cornstarch and sugar, giving them a good whisk to blend together. Now, gradually pour in the milk while whisking continuously to ensure a smooth mixture. This is where the magic begins!
Step 2
Pop the bowl into the microwave and heat it on High. Keep an eye on it, stirring every 2 minutes. In about 5 to 7 minutes, you should see the mixture thickening and bubbling away. It’s like watching a little science experiment unfold!
Step 3
Once thickened, take half of this hot cornstarch mixture and slowly whisk it into the beaten eggs. This step is crucial to temper the eggs, preventing them from scrambling. After that, stir the egg mixture back into the remaining cornstarch mixture in the bowl.
Step 4
Return the bowl to the microwave and heat it again on High. This time, stir every 45 seconds until it’s heated through and thickened, which should take about 1 to 3 minutes. You’re almost there!
Step 5
Finally, whisk in the butter and vanilla extract until everything is beautifully combined. The aroma will be irresistible! Serve this creamy delight warm, and enjoy every spoonful of this comforting treat.
