Simple "Any Kind of Dessert" Pastry Cream

 by jen7714

Pastry cream is a staple in many desserts. I know I use and make it a lot. This pastry cream isn't as sweet which is great to balance out some other desserts. This pastry cream (along with another variation) was used in Delicious Phyllo Dough Squares and Pumpkin Pie Eclairs. This cream's main ingredient is eggs instead of sugar so it is much healthier. Simple "Any Kind of Dessert" Pastry Cream is great for all dessert and easy to make too.

I just need some eggs and I'll be all set to make this!! Looks so easy, and versatile. I've never attempted making pastry cream as of yet.

I may do! I'm more of a main course cook than a dessert chef. But mayhaps at Christmas if I have time while I'm visiting my parents.

Great! I'm almost the opposite. I love my desserts. :) Especially during the holidays... And awesome, I'm sure they'll love it.
