Instructions

  1. Pour the cold milk into a large saucepan. Add the flour, cornstarch, and sugar to the milk. Stir well to combine all the ingredients until smooth.
  2. Turn the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture comes to a boil and starts to thicken slightly.
  3. After it starts to boil, reduce the heat to medium-low. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the mixture fully thickens to a pudding-like consistency, about 15 minutes.
  4. Once the muhallebi reaches the desired thickness, remove it from the heat. While still hot, add the butter and vanilla extract. Whisk until the butter is fully melted and incorporated.
  5. Divide the muhallebi into serving bowls and allow it to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, transfer the bowls to the refrigerator and let them set for at least one hour.
  6. Serve the muhallebi cold, optionally garnished with chopped pistachios, almonds, or dried fruits.
