NESSELRODE PIE

Steps:

• Heat the milk in a saucepan and when it is warm, add the gelatin. Stir to dissolve. Bring just to the simmer and remove from the heat.
• Put the egg yolks in a mixing bowl and add one-quarter cup of sugar. Beat until golden yellow and slightly thickened. Add the hot milk mixture, stirring vigorously.
• Pour this liquid into a saucepan and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the custard coats the spoon with a film. The correct temperature on a thermometer is 180 degrees. Immediately pour the mixture into a cold mixing bowl so that it does not cook further. Add the Nesselrode mix and stir. Let cool.
