Vanilla And Chocolate Vla Recipes

VANILLA AND CHOCOLATE VLA

Steps:

• Mix milk, first measuring of sugar and vanilla extract in a pan (I like to use non-stick), and bring to the boil.
• Meanwhile, whisk corn starch and second measuring of sugar together.
• Add the egg yolks, whisk until mixed well with the starch and sugar.
• When the milk has come to the boil, add a little to the egg mixture and mix immediately; then add the rest of the milk while whisking.
• Pour the milk-egg mixture back in the pan and place on medium-low heat, while stirring constantly.
• When it has thickened and boiled for about 20 seconds, the vanilla vla is ready; pour it into a bowl immediately.
• Add the butter and keep whisking until it is incorporated.
• Leave to cool and serve cold or at room temperature.
• Bring milk to the boil in a pan (I like to use non-stick).

VANILLA AND CHOCOLATE DELIGHT

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). In a medium mixing bowl, combine pecans, flour, and butter. Press into a 9x13 inch pan. Bake for 25 minutes. Allow to cool.
• In a large bowl, beat together cream cheese and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Fold in half of the whipped topping. Spread on top of cooled crust.
• In a large bowl, combine milk, chocolate pudding mix, and vanilla pudding mix. Beat until thick. Pour over cream cheese layer. Top with remaining whipped topping, and sprinkle with crushed chocolate bars.

DUTCH VLA (CUSTARD)

Steps:

• 1. Mix the flour with the sugar and 4 tbsp of milk. Bring the rest of the milk to the boil.
• 2. Add the custard mix and keep on stirring while it gently simmers for 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
• 3. Cooling Down To prevent skin forming while the vla is cooling down: 1- you can sprinkle a thin layer of sugar on top, or 2- you can put the pan in a larger pan of cold water, and keep whisking every 5 minutes until the vla is lukewarm
• 4. Variations: Different Tastes For real vanilla, start with simmering the milk with a cut open vanilla stick for 20 minutes. Remove the stick, and add 2 bags of vanilla sugar. For chocolate you have two options. You can melt real chocolate in the simmering milk, or you could add 40gr of cocoa powder to the sugar. For caramel you have to caramelise 125gr of white castor sugar in a pan. When the sugar has the right color, remove from heat, add 2 tbsp of cold water to stop the cooking process, and add the boiling milk (and optional 125ml cream). Stir until the caramel is dissolved. For coffee vla, mix in some instant coffee. DO NOT use anymore sugar for the further preparation of the vla except for some vanilla sugar.
• 5. NOTE: You could use flavoured milk instead of plain milk.
