CAKE AND CANNOLI CUSTARD CREAM FILLING



Cake and Cannoli Custard Cream Filling image

very good cream filling.. Note: I also made this with using only 250 ml of Nurti Whip and it turns out a little heavier but is great believe me..this is a three for one recipe here..as you can also use the filling without the nutri whip too with good tasting results. Use this filling for tarts, cream puffs, or cakes and although not a traditional cannoli filling its great in those too. Nutri Whip is a Canadian Product, it is similar to Rich's Ready to Whip Topping. It is liquid and needs to be beaten just like whipping cream, without sugar added.

Time 25m

Yield 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 egg yolks
4 tablespoons white sugar
5 tablespoons flour
2 cups whole milk
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 (106 g) package instant lemon pudding mix
1 (500 ml) container nutri whipped topping
1 dash salt

Steps:

  • Combine sugar, flour and salt in a pot.
  • Whisk to combine well.
  • Add milk gradually to get no lumps.
  • Stir over medium heat until it thickens and comes to a low boil, about 10 minutes.
  • Beat yolks in a bowl.
  • Add some hot mixture into the bowl just a little to bring to a warm temperature.
  • Add all back into the pot of mixture on the stove and continue to low cook until thick, do not boil.
  • Remove and blend in the vanilla and pkg of dry pudding mix.
  • Stir well until blended.
  • Cool two hours, covered with saran (not to get a skin on top) or until cold.
  • Beat nutri whip and then fold into the cold custard.
  • Blending well, the cold mixture is hard to fold in( as it has set to a thick custard) so using beaters low speed is also good results.
  • Fill cannoli-- or filling and topping for cakes.this should be stored in the refrigerator, because of the Nutri whip topping.
  • I have never made this with reg. whipping cream, always Nurti Whip.

Tips:

  • If you are using a food processor to make the cream puff dough, be sure to use the pulse setting and work quickly so that the butter does not overwork.
  • When baking the cream puffs, be sure to preheat the oven and do not open the door during baking. This will help the cream puffs to rise properly.
  • If you are using a piping bag to fill the cream puffs, be sure to use a large tip so that the filling can easily be piped into the puffs.
  • If you do not have a piping bag, you can use a spoon to fill the cream puffs. Just be sure to fill them evenly so that they do not become lopsided.
  • If you are making the cannoli cream filling ahead of time, be sure to store it in the refrigerator. It will keep for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Cream puffs are a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, and other special occasions. With so many different ways to fill and flavor them, there is sure to be a cream puff that everyone will love.
