on Jul 02, 2015, Updated Aug 27, 2021 4 Comments Pastry cream makes one of those classic, essential recipes that once you make it you’ll find infinite uses for it when making desserts. Even though it uses only six ingredients and takes less than 30 minutes to make, homemade pastry cream requires a close eye and constant attention as it is being prepared. Through the years of making it, I’ve learned a few tricks for making a fail proof classic pastry cream every single time. It begins with patience, which I have very little of by the way, and ends without distraction, which I can easily be distracted at any given second. Thankfully, the end result is so worth the care and attention required to make it. Otherwise, we’d just be having whipped cream with all of our desserts! Here’s how I make my Classic Pastry Cream recipe. I think you’ll love it, too! Enjoy!Robyn xo
