Vanilla-Flavoured Cooking Dessert Sauce

Whether it’s jelly, chocolate pudding, roasted apple, strudel, sweet dumplings, or much more – as granny knew, a good vanilla sauce is the perfect addition to many a dessert or dish.

Cooking your own vanilla sauce takes a lot of effort and can’t be done ‘just like that’. In particular, binding with the egg and thickening the sauce nicely requires a certain knack, as well as time and patience. Good news: we’ve got an alternative up our sleeves. Our vanilla-flavoured dessert sauce tastes delicious and is really quick to make. Simply mix the sauce powder with milk, bring to the boil and you’re done! Our dessert sauce can be served warm or cold.

Encores

What else you’ll need

• 500 ml (1/2 l) milk (1.5% fat)
• 30 g (approx. 2 level tbsp) sugar

Preparation

1. Set aside around 6 tablespoons of the 500 ml (1/2 l) milk and mix with the sauce powder and around 2 level tablespoons of sugar (30 g).
2. Now bring the rest of the milk to the boil. Take the milk off the hob, add the mixed powder and bring to the boil properly again, stirring constantly.
3. Stir the sauce now and then as it cools to prevent any skin from building up.
