Method
Preparation of Base
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and sugar until well combined.
Combine Mixtures
Gradually add the cornstarch and sugar mixture to the warm milk, whisking continuously to prevent lumps.
Add Vanilla
Once the mixture is smooth, stir in the vanilla extract.
Thicken the Mixture
Continue to cook the mixture over medium heat, whisking constantly until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 10-15 minutes.
Pour into Molds
Remove from heat and pour the thickened mixture into individual serving cups or molds. Allow it to cool to room temperature.
Refrigerate
Once cooled, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.
