- 2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 large egg yolk
- 1/2 cup Swerve or sugar substitute

Instructions

- Meanwhile, whisk the egg yolks in a large bowl
- Slowly add the hot milk to the egg mixture while whisking constantly to avoid the egg from cooking

- Pour pudding into cups or ramekins

- Enjoy!
Notes
- If substituting Splenda for Swerve, use 1/2 cup instead of 1/2 cup Swerve.

- Chill pudding for at least 4 hours or overnight for best texture.
