- Meanwhile in a container we will beat the egg yolks, together with the sugar. We will mix.
- Gradually add the previously sifted cornstarch. The right point to stop beating will be when we see that a kind of cream has formed.
- Let’s pour this mixture into the milk and begin to beat vigorously with a wire whisk. Turn off the heat but continue beating until the desired consistency is achieved.
- Our cream will be ready, being hot we will put it in a container and we will cover it with plastic wrap. This is done so that a crust does not form on the surface.
Let cool while we prepare the base of the cake.
