I'm always on the lookout for delicious things to fix for my husband and my 89 year-old mother, shares Linda Foreman of Locust Grove, Oklahoma. This rich dessert is a winner with everyone. Ingredients:
sugar substitute equivalent to 1/2 cup sugar |
5 tablespoons baking cocoa |
3 tablespoons cornstarch |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
2-1/2 cups fat-free milk |
2 egg yolks, lightly beaten |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 cup miniature marshmallows |
1/4 cup chopped walnuts, toasted |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine the sugar substitute, cocoa, cornstarch and salt. Stir in milk until smooth. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat to low; cook and stir 2 minutes longer.
2. Remove from the heat. Stir a small amount of hot filling into egg yolks; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat. Gently stir in vanilla. Cool for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Transfer to individual dessert dishes. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. Just before serving, top with marshmallows and walnuts. Yield: 5 servings.
