• Reduce the speed to low and add in one egg at a time. Allow each egg to fully incorporate into the batter before adding the next egg.
• Slowly add the milk into the batter. Beat on low until the milk is well combined.
• Add the flour and baking powder to the batter and continue to beat on low speed. Use a spatula to scrape the sides. Beat until the dry ingredients are well combined.

• Use a medium mixing bowl and combine instant pudding with heavy whipping cream. Use a hand mixer and whisk until the mixture is creamy. Set aside.
• Use a small bowl and whisk 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 1/4 cup of water until there are no lumps. Set aside.
• Use a small saucepan and bring a ¼ cup of water and ½ cup of sugar to a boil. Once the water has reached a boil, reduce the heat to medium and whisk in the liquid cornstarch into the boiling sugar water.
