Description
A rich and creamy dessert made with milk, butter, and sugar.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup whole milk
- 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a saucepan over medium heat, whisk flour and milk until smooth and thickened like pudding (about 7–10 minutes).
- Remove from heat, transfer to a bowl, and cover with plastic wrap directly on the surface to avoid skin forming. Let cool completely.
- In a stand mixer, beat butter and sugar on high until very light and fluffy, about 5–7 minutes.
- Add the cooled flour-milk mixture to the creamed butter one tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Add vanilla extract and salt, then beat until light, fluffy, and silky smooth.
- If needed, chill for 10–15 minutes to firm up before piping or spreading.
Notes
- This cream can be used for filling cakes or as a topping for desserts.
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for best results.
