- Directions:.
- Break the eggs and separate them into the two small mixing bowls. Beat the yolks with the fork and set them aside.
- Combine the brown sugar, cornstarch, and salt in the medium saucepan. With the wooden spoon gradually stir in the milk.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir the mixture until it is thick and bubbling - about 10 - 15 minutes. Stir and cook for 2 more minutes, and then take the saucepan off the heat.
- Dip a measuring cup into the hot mixture and take out about 1 cup. Very slowly stir the cup of hot mixture into the egg yolks. Then stir the hot egg-yolk mixture into the large saucepan.
- Stirring constantly, cook over medium heat for 2 more minutes.
- Take the saucepan off the heat and add the butter and vanilla. Stir with the wooden spoon until the butter melts.
- Pour pudding into the serving bowl. To keep a skin from forming on top, carefully place a piece of plastic wrap over the hot pudding and let it cool - about 1 minute. Remove the plastic wrap and spoon the pudding into small bowls.
