Ingredients
-
1.25 cups lite soy milk
11.5 tsp splenda (or your preferred sweetener)
4.5 tsp cornflour (aka cornstarch)
1/4 tsp vanilla essence
1 tsp brandy
Tips
Don't worry if it looks a bit runny, it will thicken when it cools.
Directions
1. Heat milk in a saucepan until it's quite hot but not boiling.
2. Put the cornflour in a bowl or jug, remove about a quarter cup of milk from the saucepan and whisk it into the cornflour gradually to make a paste. Do it gradually or the custard will be lumpy.
3. Add the paste back into the milk, whisking vigorously to avoid lumps. Add the splenda.
4. Cook, whisking continuously, for about 5 minutes. It can come to a simmer but don't let it boil or burn. Custard should start to thicken.
5. Stir in the vanilla and brandy, remove from heat and stand for a minute or two to thicken.
Great on christmas pudding! You can use other flavourings and/or omit the brandy if desired.
Serving Size: Makes 2 servings of about 2/3 cup
