This will temper the eggs and you will avoid having scrambled eggs. When it starts to bubble, cook for an additional 30 seconds. It may look like it going to curdle, but keep stirring, it will all work out, I promise. Pour through a sieve to get out any little pieces of cooked egg, and to ensure a super smooth creme pat. Add the butter and vanilla extract if you are using that. Cover with plastic wrap that touches the surface of the custard. This will keep it from getting a film.
Let cool a bit, then put in the fridge to chill. Now that we have the custard or creme patisserie part finished, we can make the diplomat cream. Whip the cold heavy cream to medium peaks. I like to do it by hand, but you can use a mixer. You can make the custard or creme patissiere ahead of time, it will keep for a few days in an airtight container in the fridge.
However, I would not add the whipped cream until you were ready to serve it. It is best served immediately. Heat over medium heat until it comes to a simmer. Whisk the yolk mixture until combined. Slowly add in the rest of the hot milk. Pour it all back into the saucepan. Return to medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Add the butter, and vanilla extract if you are using that.
Stir until silky and smooth. Let cool a bit, then put in the fridge to chill, about 2 hours. Fold a few spoonfuls of the custard into the cream. Gradually add the rest of the custard, being careful to not knock the air out. All information and tools presented and written within this site are intended for informational purposes only.

Thanks for this recipe! This sounds like it would work in eclairs. It will work in eclairs. By the time I realized my mistake it was too late but maybe a few edits? Or I should read the whole recipe several times?! I think that you misread it, the cold cream is at the bottom. In the ingredients in the post and the recipe card at the bottom. First you make pastry cream, then to make diplomat cream, you fold in whipped cream. I read the recipe just now and got confused at the same spot. I think the last bit belong to the ingredients and just got mixed up on top of the picture….
No, you make pastry cream, to turn it into diplomat cream, you fold in two cups of whipped heavy cream. It is correct. At least I think so! Your instructions are definitely confusing. I u sets told the recipe, especially with the story for context, appreciate it! I have a question, I would like to use diplomat creme for a cake. Would it be ok if I make the cake a day before the party? If I was using it as a filling for a cake it should be fine, but if I was going to dip it into berries, I would wait and add the whipped cream right before serving.
I want to make this for flavored eclairs. If I wanted to incorporate a flavored syrup, would it be possible? Hi there! So what is left? Strawberries, right?! I then decided that I wanted to do something with Strawberries and Custard that was really light and also creative, so I bought these beautiful disposable plastic parfait glasses and matching spoons on Amazon, then started hunting for the perfect recipe.
Through the magic of Google, using just the keywords Strawberry Custard, your recipe appeared first! I love the fact that your recipe sounds like a light and fluffy and delicious version of custard. And the broken up waffle cookies are a lovely idea. And then, I can make up a little batch of merengue cookies with the leftover egg whites from the yolks that got added to the custard.
Thank you for the awesome recipe. My weekly butter purchase and intake is getting a bit crazy and, I suspect, so is my cholesterol level.
Most start with a basic thickened cream or milk, and then have a number of ingredients added to create a different taste or texture. These creams, along with basic whipped cream, are the foundation of many advanced creams but are also frequently used in their own right.
It sometimes includes vanilla for extra flavour. Its ingredients include milk and sometimes cream , sugar and egg yolk. It is made using milk, sugar, egg, flour and butter and follows a classic custard method of adding heated milk to raw eggs to create a thick consistency.
Butter is added at the end for flavour. It is often used when the cream needs to hold up when a pastry is cut, for example a mille fuille. This creates a light, stable cream that can be used in moulds or as a pastry filling. Gelatin is also sometimes added to provide extra stability.
