heavy cream

🥗Healthier: coconut cream

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Coconut cream is dairy-free and adds richness.

butter

🥗Healthier: ghee

💰Cheaper: margarine

Ghee is lactose-free and has a higher smoke point.

Start by placing 4 ounces of cream cheese into a saucepan.

Turn the burner on to medium to medium-high heat.

Heat the cream cheese until softened, about 1-1.5 minutes, without letting it bubble or boil.

Remove the saucepan from the burner but leave the burner on.

Add heavy cream to the softened cream cheese and stir to combine.

Return the saucepan to the burner briefly to warm the mixture, then remove it again.

Add 2 egg yolks to the mixture and whisk thoroughly to combine without cooking the yolks.

Return the saucepan to the burner while whisking consistently to prevent the egg yolks from scrambling.

Switch between on and off the heat, whisking continuously for about 30 seconds each time to evenly distribute heat.

If lumps form, remove from heat and whisk vigorously, or blend in a blender if necessary.

Continue whisking until you see bubbles and frothiness, indicating the mixture is heating up without scrambling the eggs.
