Ingredients

  • 1 packet of Oreo cookies
  • 25 ounces (750 milliliters) single cream
  • 5 ⅓ ounces (150 grams) caster sugar
  • 5 medium egg yolks

Steps

  1. Crush the Oreo cookies either by chopping them with a knife or pounding them in a freezer bag. You can still have some large chunks or have all crumbs if you wish.
  2. Separate the eggs and keep the yolks in a bowl. Discard the whites and shells. Use a whisk to mix the yolks together until well beaten.
  3. Pour the beaten yolks, single cream, and caster sugar into a saucepan. Place it on a medium heat and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Remove the mixture from the heat and pour it into a cold jug or bowl to let it cool.
