  1. Preheat oven to 160ºC and line a 9 hole muffin tin with paper casing.

  2. To make custard filling: Combine cake flour, corn flour, MARIGOLD Evaporated Creamer, egg yolks and stir until even. Pour mixture into a non-stick pan and cook over low heat, stirring until it starts to thicken. Add in butter and turn off heat. Continue to stir until butter is well blended into the mixture. Leave to cool. Whisk whipping cream with vanilla essence until soft peak forms. Mix into cooled custard and chill in refrigerator.
