Ingredients

1 cup sugar
6 tablespoon cornstarch
3 tablespoon sweet rice flour
¾ teaspoon salt
3 cups milk (I use 2%)
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 cup whipping cream

Instructions

Combine sugar, cornstarch, sweet rice flour and salt in a medium saucepan.
Stir in milk. Bring just to a boil over medium heat whisking as it begins to thicken.
Reduce heat and stir until thick, 1-2 minutes, whisking to prevent the bottom from burning.
Cool slightly. Transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate overnight.

BEFORE SERVING

In a stand mixer add vanilla and beat mixture until smooth,
In another bowl beat whipping cream to stiff peaks. Fold into mixture and refrigerate until ready to serve. Can be served immediately.
Spoon over seasonal fresh fruit or use to fill a tart crust.

Notes

The combination of cornstarch and sweet rice flour makes a fairly firm dessert that could also be served in a pastry crust.

Cornstarch alone makes a softer dessert, best served in a dish.
