How to Make Vanilla Pudding Mix
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup cornstarch, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup powdered milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
- Transfer the mixture to a food processor and process until a fine, smooth powder is achieved.
- Transfer the powdered pudding mix to an airtight jar, label it, and store it in a cool, dry place. Include a recipe card with the following instructions for easy use:
- In a saucepan set over a double boiler (or a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water), whisk together 1 cup of the prepared pudding mix and 2 cups of milk (whole milk recommended; reconstituted dry milk may slightly alter flavor) until smooth.
- Cook over low heat, whisking constantly, for 10-15 minutes, or until the pudding thickens to your desired consistency.
- Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until completely blended.
- Pour into individual serving dishes and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
- Optional: For a richer, eggy flavor and improved setting, whisk 2 egg yolks lightly and temper them by slowly whisking in some of the hot pudding mixture before adding to the saucepan. This will prevent the eggs from scrambling.
