Preparation

Step 1

Combine sugar, salt, and cornstarch in a saucepan.
Whisk in cream, milk, and egg yolks, Cook over medium high heat, stirring constantly for 3-5 minutes or until thickened.
Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla and butter. Whisk until butter is melted.
Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove any lumps.
Cover with plastic wrap for storage. To prevent a skin or film from forming be sure to place plastic wrap up against the pudding, not just over the top of the bowl.
Serve warm or cold.
