Simple Custard

Simple Custard
  • 4 cups whole milk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch


  1. Cook and stir milk, vanilla extract, and butter in a saucepan over medium heat until simmering. Remove mixture from heat before it comes to a boil.
  2. Whisk eggs, sugar, and cornstarch together in a bowl until sugar dissolves.
  3. Set saucepan back over low heat. Pour in egg mixture slowly, whisking constantly, until custard thickens enough to coat the bottom of a spoon, 5 to 10 minutes.
