I adapted this recipe from http://www.recipezaar.com/ My finished product didn't quite turn out how i wanted it to...but it tasted great. Next time I'm going to follow my own recipe for custard because this one turned out very runny :(
Fresh Milk 5 cups
Granulated Sugar 1 cup
Butter 2 tablespoons
Vanilla Extract 1 tablespoon
Egg Yolks 8 pieces
Cashew (I used almonds), finely ground 1/4 cup
MERINGUE
Egg whites 8 pieces
Granulated Sugar 1 cup
Vanilla Extract 1 teaspoon
In a saucepan, simmer milk over low heat until reduced to 2 cups. Add sugar, butter, and vanilla extract stirri ng constantly. Remove from heat and add in a thin stream to beaten egg yolks, stir well to prevent curdling. Add nuts and continue cooking mixture over low heat, until it comes to the consistency of a paste. Set aside to cool to spreading consistency.
