Serves: 6
Vegetarian!

Ingredients
3/4 cup Brown sugar
3 tablespoons Cornstarch
1 cup Roasted butternut squash puree
2 cups Half & Half
Pinch of salt
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
2 tablespoons Butter (cut into pieces)
3 large Egg yolks
Pecans (for garnish, if desired)
Whipped cream (for serving, if desired)

Step by Step Instructions
  1. Stir the brown sugar and cornstarch together in a small bowl. Put the butternut squash puree, half & half, brown sugar mixture, salt, and the egg yolks into a blender.
  2. Blend the ingredients until they form a smooth mixture, then run it through a fine-mesh sieve into a saucepan (clean the sieve as you will need it again)
  3. Cook the squash mixture over medium heat, whisking constantly. Once it is thickened and bubbly, turn heat to low, and continue cooking and stirring constantly (now with a spoon or spatula)
  4. Stir in the vanilla extract and butter pieces until they have been completely incorporated into the pudding.
  5. Serve the pudding warm or transfer it to a bowl, cover it, and allow it to cool and serve cold. Serve garnished with whipped cream and pecans if desired.
