Ingredients
Method
In heavy saucepan, heat milk with cream over medium heat until bubbles form around edge.Meanwhile, in large bowl, whisk egg yolks with sugar until pale and thickened; gradually whisk in hot milk mixture. Return to saucepan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring and without boiling, until thick enough to coat back of spoon, about 5 minutes. (If custard boils, it curdles and separates.)
Strain through fine sieve into bowl; stir in rum. (Make-ahead: Place plastic wrap directly on surface; refrigerate for up to 2 days. Rewarm over saucepan of hot, not boiling, water, about 4 minutes.)
