From The Dessert Bible by Christopher Kimball (the guy from America's Test Kitchen). Just a classic eggless vanilla pudding.
Ingredients:
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cups half-and-half
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Directions:
1. Combine sugar, cornstarch and salt in a medium saucepan.
2. Whisk in about 1/3 cup of the half-and-half, until smooth.
3. Whisk in the remaining half-and-half until well combined.
4. Cook over medium heat, stirrying constantly and gently until thickened (about 5 minutes, but the time will vary).
5. Reduce heat to low and continue to heat, stirring gently until the mixture reaches a simmer.
6. Cook one minute more over low heat, not stirring, then remove from heat.
7. Fold in vanilla and pour pudding into 4 serving dishes.
8. The book doesn't say, but I presume that you could serve this either warm or chilled.
