Croissant Pudding

You want something creamy for dessert but you don't want it to be too sweet. And best of all, you want it to be something that you can make in advance to serve your family. So why not try this delectable dessert?

INGREDIENTS
250ml fresh milk
250ml whipping cream
100g   castor sugar
4 eggs, medium size or grade B
1/2 tsp vanilla essence
2 medium-sized croissants, sliced ( I used more than 2 criossants due to small sizes)

METHOD

Break eggs in the bowl. Add sugar. Stir well, don't beat. Add vanilla. Then add milk, stir. Add whipping cream,stir. Sieve the mixture, put aside. Glaze the baking bowl with melted butter so that the pudding won't stick. Place croissant slices in bowl. Pour mixture into the baking bowl. Bake using double boiler ( baking tin partly submerged in a bigger tin, half filled with water) at 170C for 30 minutes. Serve cold.
