So If you spend as much time as I do browsing pinterest, I'm sure you've seen the recipe where you layer pudding with graham crackers and the crackers soften and become cake textured. So, I tried it out.. but of course made my own yummy custard to put between the layers. It was fabulous!
Today was the third time I've made it and here's the recipe!
For the Creamy Custard:
3 cups milk, divided
1 1/2 cups sugar
6 egg yolks
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste
3 tablespoons butter
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
1/3 cup powdered sugar
You will also need:
1 box chocolate graham crackers
1 "row" Oreo cookies
Whipped cream/ cool whip for garnish
First, let's make this custard/cream/ delicious whatever you want to call it.
1) In a bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of milk, sugar, egg yolks and cornstartch. Set aside.
2) Scald the rest of the milk.
3)On medium heat, whisk in the egg yolk mixture slowly. Continue whisking and cooking on low heat until mixture becomes thick and bubbles slightly.
4)Strain through a fine mesh sieve and mix in the butter. Allow to cool for 1 hour in the fridge.
To Combine:
1) Working with the whisk attachment on your Kitchenaid mixer, whip the cream with the powdered sugar until stiff. Move whipped cream to another bowl.
2) Switch to the paddle attachment and beat cream cheese until soft. Add the custard from the fridge and mix until combined.
3) Fold in the whipped cream.
In a 9x13 pan, place one sleeve of the graham crackers in a single layer. Spoon and spread 1/3 of the custard. Repeat with the remaining two sleeves of crackers and custard.
Crumble the Oreos on top.
Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight. Serve with whipped cream or cool whip.
