Steps for preparing mascarpone custard cream
In a saucepan, mix the egg yolks with sugar. Add the cornstarch and continue mixing with a hand whisk until you obtain a cream. Add the milk while continuously mixing with the whisk.
Flavor with grated lemon or orange peel or some vanilla extract. Put on the stove and, while continuously stirring, cook until the cream thickens. Pour the cream into a bowl and cover with cling film directly on the surface. Let it cool and place in the fridge for at least two or three hours.
When the cream is well chilled, add the mascarpone and work with the electric beaters until you have a thick and homogeneous cream. The mascarpone cream is ready to be used.
