Hello,
I found this sauce in an old cookbook, could this be the one you are looking for?
Vanilla sauce:
- 2 cups milk
- 1 vanilla pod (1 tsp vanilla extract can be substituted)
- 3 eggs
- 4 tbl sugar
- 3/4 cup stiffly whipped cream
Pour milk in small heavy saucepan. Add vanilla pod; heat to just under boiling point. Remove vanilla pod; wipe dry; store.
Beat eggs until lemon-colored. Pour small amount hot milk over eggs; stir constantly. Return to remaining hot milk in saucepan; cook, stirring constantly, over low hear about 20 min, until thick. Remove from heat; stir in sugar. Let cool; fold in whipped cream gradually.
Use on apple dumplings.
Enjoy
