1
In a large saucepan, mix together the granulated sugar, cornstarch, and salt.
2
Add the whole milk and heavy cream to the saucepan, stirring until well combined.
3
In a medium bowl, gently beat the egg yolks and set aside.
4
Place the saucepan on medium heat, keep stirring the mixture continuously until it starts to thicken.
5
Remove the saucepan from heat. Gradually pour about half of the hot mixture into the beaten yolks, whisking it constantly. This method is called tempering.
6
Add the tempered yolk mixture back into the saucepan.
7
Place saucepan back on the stove. Cook while continuously stirring until the mixture has thickened to a pudding-like consistency.
8
Remove from heat, then add the unsalted butter and pure vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
9
Transfer the pudding into a heat-safe container. Cover the top with plastic wrap, making sure it directly touches the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming.
10
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Enjoy your luscious vanilla pudding!
