Ingredients
  

  • 1 l Milk
  • 108 g Flour
  • 100 g Sugar
  • 25 g Cornstarch
  • 1 Tablespoon of Butter
  • 1 Packet of Vanilla Sugar
  • For decoration I used: raspberry jam, strawberries, dark chocolate, grapes and Raffaello

Instructions
 

Step 1: Make the Vanilla Pudding Base

  • In a medium saucepan, mix 108g flour, 100g sugar, and 25g cornstarch. Slowly whisk in 1 liter of milk to create a smooth mixture with no lumps. Heat the saucepan over medium heat, whisking constantly until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble. Lower the heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 packet of vanilla sugar. Keep stirring until the butter melts and the vanilla blends in completely. Remove from heat and let the pudding cool slightly.

Step 2: Prepare the Biscuit and Hazelnut Layer

  • While the pudding cools, crush your favorite buttery biscuits (like shortbread or digestive) into fine crumbs using a food processor or by hand. Spread an even layer of the biscuit crumbs in your serving dish or dessert cups. Sprinkle a handful of finely chopped hazelnuts and some coconut flakes on top for extra crunch and flavor.

Step 3: Assemble the Dessert

  • Pour the slightly cooled vanilla pudding over the biscuit, hazelnut, and coconut layer. Smooth it out with a spatula. Let it rest at room temperature for about 10 minutes, then place it in the fridge to chill for 2–3 hours until fully set.

Step 4: Decorate and Serve

  • After the pudding sets, add your favorite toppings:
  • Place a dollop of raspberry jam in the center.
  • Scatter fresh strawberries, grapes, or any seasonal fruits on top.
  • Shave some dark chocolate over the dessert for a rich touch.
  • Top each serving with a Raffaello candy or your favorite truffle for an extra special finish.
