Custard cream with egg yolks
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Custard cream is an excellent dessert and is also used in making pastries, cakes, pies, and buns. It's quick and easy to prepare. If you don't have cornstarch, do not use potato starch—substitute with premium-grade flour. If you add 200 grams of whipped butter to this cream, you can beautifully decorate a cake, creating various patterns. Serve chilled.
