Here’s a classic Grandma’s Cream Dessert—a rich, creamy, no-bake treat that’s simple, comforting, and always a crowd-pleaser 🍮✨
🍮 Grandma’s Cream Dessert
Ingredients (serves 4–6)
- 2 cups (480 ml) milk
- 1/2 cup (100 g) sugar
- 3 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) heavy cream or whipping cream
- Optional toppings: cocoa powder, cinnamon, grated chocolate, or fruit
Instructions
- Prepare pudding
- In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with a few tablespoons of milk to make a smooth slurry.
- In a saucepan, combine remaining milk and sugar. Heat over medium heat until warm (not boiling).
- Gradually whisk in cornstarch mixture.
- Cook
- Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens (about 5–7 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
- Cool
- Pour into serving dishes or a large bowl.
- Let cool slightly, then cover and refrigerate at least 1–2 hours.
- Whip cream
- Whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
- Spoon or pipe over chilled pudding.
- Serve
- Sprinkle optional toppings like cocoa, cinnamon, or fruit.
- Serve cold for a refreshing dessert.
Tips
- For extra flavor, add a few drops of almond or lemon extract.
- You can layer with crushed cookies or sponge cake for a layered dessert.
- Leftovers keep in the fridge for 2–3 days.
I can also give a more decadent version with chocolate or caramel sauce, or a fruit-layered grandma-style cream dessert if you want.
Do you want me to do that?
