Ingredients

  • tablespoons cornstarch 
  • 0.8 cup t brown sugar dark packed
  • large egg yolk 
  • cups half and half 
  • 0.5 cup cup heavy whipping cream chilled
  • 0.3 teaspoon salt 
  • 0.3 cup cream sour chilled
  • tablespoon butter unsalted
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • sauce pan
  • whisk
  • sieve

Directions

  1. Stir together half-and-half, brown sugar, and cornstarch in a 2- to 3-quart heavy saucepan and heat over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar is dissolved and mixture is heated through (do not let boil).
  2. Whisk together yolks and salt in a medium bowl until smooth, then add hot half-and-half mixture in a slow stream, whisking. Return mixture to saucepan and cook over moderate heat, whisking, until mixture just reaches a boil, then boil, whisking, 1 minute (mixture will thicken). Immediately pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl and stir in butter and vanilla until butter is incorporated. Set bowl in a larger bowl of ice and cold water and chill, stirring frequently, until pudding is cool, about 10 minutes.
  3. Beat heavy cream with sour cream in a bowl with a whisk until mixture just holds stiff peaks.
  4. Divide pudding among 6 small bowls, then top each serving with a generous dollop of cream.
