After the chocolate dulcey dessert cream and the pistachio & orange blossom one, here is the simplest (but not the least indulgent!) version of dessert creams like danette or liégeois, the vanilla one. A creamy vanilla chocolate with a well-flavored vanilla whipped cream, it's always a hit 😉 Of course, the whipped cream is optional, and you can also modify it by adding the flavor of your choice (coffee extract, chocolate shavings, hazelnut puree…) for a slightly different version.

Ingredients:
I used Madagascar vanilla and Norohy vanilla extract from Valrhona: code ILETAITUNGATEAU for 20% off the entire site (affiliate).

Gradually dilute the cornstarch with cold cream. Add the sugar and the seeds of the vanilla bean.

Place the saucepan on the fire and thicken over medium heat, stirring constantly; the cream must be at a low boil for about 2 minutes for the cornstarch to be cooked.
