Recipe Reviews
Followed the steps properly and yet it only turned out once after several attempts. Wouldn't recommend
Followed instructions perfectly, but I ended up with a grainy and greasy mess! Such a waste of ingredients.
Good
Great recipe! Looks thin when it’s done but thickens up really quickly.
Beautiful... At first it curdled, then I added some cream and kept mixing for another minute, then voila... appeared a thing of beauty!!!
Fun fun fun
