Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 4 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1-2/3 cups 1% milk
  • 2 egg yolks, lightly beaten
  • 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups mixed fresh berries

Directions

  1. In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and salt. Stir in milk until smooth. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat; cook and stir 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat.
  2. Stir a small amount of hot filling into egg yolks; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat.
  3. Gently stir in vanilla. Cool to room temperature without stirring. Transfer to a bowl; press plastic wrap onto surface of custard. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  4. Just before serving, spoon 1/4 cup of berries into each parfait glass; top with 2 tablespoons of custard. Repeat layers.
