 Ingredients List

  • 3 Egg yolks
  • 2 tb Sugar
  • 1/2 c Whipping cream
  • 1/2 c Milk
  • 1 ts Vanilla extract
  • 1 c Unsalted butter
  • - at room temperature
  • 1/4 c Confectioners' sugar

 Directions

WHISK YOLKS AND SUGAR TOGETHER in a mixing bowl until smooth. Combine
cream, milk and vanilla in a pot, place over high heat. As soon as mixture
boils, remove from heat and slowly pour over the yolks, stirring. Replace
mixture in a pot, place over low heat and cook, stirring constantly with a
wooden spoon. When the mixture has a consistency that coats the spoon,
remove from the heat and pour into a bowl. Continue to stir as the mixture
cools. Be very careful not to overcook or the yolks will curdle. Cool to
room temperature. Place the butter and confectioners' sugar in a mixer and
cream together. Slowly add the cooled cream mixture until you have achieved
a light, creamy frosting consistency. Makes 2 Cups
