Ingredients :
-
around three hundred milliliters total milk
-
one 14-ounce can condensed milk with sugar added
-
40 milliliters of cornstarch
-
a teaspoon of vanilla flavoring
-
2-packs of basic biscuits, such as digestives or graham crackers
-
If you want it particularly rich, you may add 1/4 cup of butter.
-
Graham crackers or crushed biscuits (to garnish)
Instructions :
- Mix the cornstarch, sweetened condensed milk, and whole milk in a medium saucepan. Make sure there are no lumps by whisking the cornstarch until it is completely dissolved. The pudding’s foundation will be this combination.
- While stirring constantly, bring the mixture to a medium boil. The mixture will get thicker as it becomes hotter. Typically, this will take about five to seven minutes. Take it off the heat when the pudding has thickened to a custard-like consistency. For an additional dose of flavor and richness, stir in the vanilla essence. Now is the time to add the butter and whisk until melted if you want a little richer custard.
- Crush half of the biscuits or graham crackers into tiny crumbs while the custard is cooling somewhat. To do this, you may either put them in a plastic bag and crush them lightly with a rolling pin or pulse them in a food processor.
- Spread a thin layer of crushed biscuits on the bottom of a deep dish or baking dish (glass is best for display). The pudding layers are laid on top of this crispy base.
- Put half of the custard mixture on top of the biscuit layer once they are in place. You may use a spatula or the back of a spoon to spread it out evenly. The crispness of the cookies is well complemented by the smooth, creamy custard.
- Add another layer of crumbled biscuits on top of the custard. Extra texture and taste from this, so go ahead and pile it on!
- Top the biscuit layer with the remaining custard. Spread it out gently, making sure the creamy custard completely covers the biscuit layer and seals it in.
- Additional crumbled biscuits may be sprinkled on top for a decorative accent. This adds a delightful crunch to the dish, which goes well with the smooth filling.
- Put the dish in the fridge for at least two hours, or until it sets completely. The flavors combine and the pudding becomes a more consistent consistency when it’s chilled. Leaving it to cool overnight will provide the greatest results.
