No Bake Egg
Description
This classic No Bake Egg is a delightful, creamy dessert that requires no oven time. It features a smooth, pudding-like texture achieved by gently cooking egg yolks with sugar and milk, then cooling and folding in whipped cream or whipped topping for a light, airy finish. The result is a rich, vanilla-infused treat that is both nostalgic and refreshing. Perfect for summer gatherings, potlucks, or a quick weekday dessert, it brings a touch of homemade elegance to your table. Serve it chilled in individual glasses or a large bowl, garnished with fresh fruit or a sprinkle of nutmeg for an extra layer of flavor and presentation.Ingredients
Directions
-
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until pale and slightly thickened.
-
Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring no lumps remain.
-
Place the saucepan over medium-low heat and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon (about 170&# 194;°F/76ðC). Do not let it boil.
-
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Transfer the custard to a bowl and refrigerate, uncovered, until completely cooled.
-
Once cool, gently fold in the whipped cream until just combined and airy.
-
Spoon into serving dishes and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
