Hello again! It’s Alicia from The Baker Upstairs, and I have the most fabulous dessert to share with you today! This Boston cream pie is a decadent and delicious dessert that is sure to wow everyone at the table.


It has layers of tender cake sandwiched with rich homemade custard, all topped with a luscious chocolate ganache. It’s completely delicious!

Ingredients
2 8-inch white or yellow cake rounds baked and cooled
for the custard:
4 large egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup corn starch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 tablespoons butter cut into pieces
for the ganache:
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
To make the custard, in a medium sauce pan, whisk together the eggs, sugar, corn starch and salt until well combined and no lumps remain. Then whisk in the milk until well combined. Heat the mixture over medium-high heat for 2 to 4 minutes, or until thickened. Remove from heat and whisk in the vanilla. Add the pieces of butter, and stir until completely melted and smooth. Pour the custard into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until completely chilled.
To assemble the cake, level the cake rounds using a serrated knife or cake leveler. Place one of the cake rounds on a serving plate, and gently spread the cooled custard evenly over the cake layer. Add the remaining cake layer on top.
To make the ganache, add the chocolate chips to a medium bowl. Add the heavy whipping cream to a microwave safe bowl or measuring cup, and heat one minute on high, or until boiling. Pour the whipping cream over the chocolate chips and let stand for one minute. Using a fork, stir the ganache until it is smooth and the chocolate has melted completely. Pour the ganache over the cake, spreading evenly. Let stand 30-60 minutes, until the ganache has cooled and set.
