| 
   6 egg yolks  | 
| 
   Caster sugar  | 
| 
   Thickened cream (lactose free if required)  | 
| 
   Lactose free milk  | 
| 
   1 tsp vanilla essence  | 
| 
   2 tsp cornflour/cornstarch  | 
Add milk, vanilla and 200ml of the cream into a saucepan.
Heat on a low heat until just under a boil.
Whisk the egg yolks, caster sugar and cornflour until light and creamy in a large measuring jug or bowl.
Pour the heated cream into the eggs in a long steady stream, whisking the eggs continually.
Pour this thin custard back into the saucepan then whisk continually on a medium heat until the custard thickens and starts to gently bubble.
Remove from the heat immediately, stir in the extra 100ml of cream and continue whisking for a minute or so to ensure the custard is smooth with no lumps.
Serve immediately.
This custard is a perfect way to use the 6 egg yolks left over from the Lemon Raspberry Friands
