Step 3: Layer the Custard
Once your biscuits are in place, pour half of the custard mixture over the biscuit layer. Spread it evenly using a spatula or the back of a spoon. The smooth, creamy custard contrasts beautifully with the crunch of the biscuits.
Step 4: Add Another Biscuit Layer
Now, crush more biscuits and sprinkle a second layer over the custard. Be generous—this adds extra texture and flavor!
Step 5: Top with the Remaining Custard
Pour the remaining custard over the top biscuit layer. Gently spread it out, ensuring that the biscuit layer is fully covered and sealed in by the rich custard.
Step 6: Finish with Crushed Biscuits
To add the finishing touch, sprinkle the top with more crushed biscuits. This gives the dessert a lovely crunchy texture that complements the creamy filling.
Step 7: Chill and Serve
Place the dish in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until fully set. Chilling allows the flavors to meld together and gives the pudding a more cohesive texture. For best results, you can even leave it to chill overnight.
Tips for Success:
Cornstarch consistency: Make sure to whisk constantly while heating the milk mixture to avoid lumps.
Layer variation: You can add more layers of biscuits and custard if desired for extra height and texture.
Flavored twist: Feel free to add a dash of cinnamon or cocoa powder to the biscuit layers for an extra flavor boost.
