- Prepare the Pudding Base:
- In a large pot, combine the milk, sugar, cornstarch, and flour. Whisk well until the cornstarch and flour are completely dissolved and no lumps remain.
- Cook the Pudding:
- Place the pot over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring continuously to avoid any lumps. Continue cooking until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble.
- Add Vanilla and Butter:
- Once the mixture has thickened, remove it from the heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and butter until fully incorporated. The butter will give the pudding a creamy texture and rich flavor.
- Pour and Cool:
- Pour the mixture into a large serving dish or individual cups, depending on your preference.
- Let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
- Add the Cinnamon Topping:
- Before serving, evenly sprinkle a layer of ground cinnamon on top of the pudding for a classic, aromatic finish.
- Serve:
- Once the pudding has set, it’s ready to enjoy! You can garnish it with a little extra cinnamon if desired.
This creamy and smooth dessert is deliciously simple, with a perfect balance of sweetness and spice from the cinnamon. Let me know if you’d like additional tips or variations!
