Butterscotch pudding

Once you try this you will not buy the boxed pudding ever again.  Then again why would you want to who knows what’s in that  box.  This recipe is from Betty Crocker and it takes minutes to make and topped with whipped cream it’s delicious.

In a sauce pan put 2/3 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch,  1/8 teaspoon salt, 2 cups milk and whisk together.  Bring to a boil on medium heat and let boil for 1 minute.  Add half of the mixture to 2 egg yolks that are slightly beaten and then put back into the  sauce pan. Bring to a boil and let boil for 1 minute.  Take off heat and add 2 tablespoons soft butter and 1 tsp vanilla. I like to strain it through a sieve in case the eggs have cooked a little.  Doing this will insure a smooth pudding. Pour into serving dishes and chill.
