I have made pastry cream before, in an actual industry kitchen for work, and I did not find this pastry cream recipe correct. I doubled the milk in it the second time and it came out beautifully and exactly the way it was when I made it at work. The first time it was a big lump of goo and turned into a big, hard lump when kept in the fridge overnight.

Dianne - Thank you! :) Karina - I sliced from top to bottom, but I saw on another blog today someone said they slide the floss underneath, then make a knot on top and pull through and it perfectly slices. I'll have to try that method next time! Jaime - Thank you so much! I will definitely do the raisins next time. Well, I'll make Nick do the raisins next time ;-) Kate - Thank you!!

My brioche loaf is in the oven right now, I can't wait to try it! Brioche is one of my favorite breads (although with all that butter, how could it not be?) Silly question: how do you cut them with dental floss? Do you slice from top to bottom or do you wrap it around the log? I have to do that next time I make these, cutting with a knife seriously squished them. I couldn’t agree more, these were delicious! My brioche loaf is in the oven right now, I can’t wait to try it!

My pastry cream was thiiiick too. It tasted good, so I figured I was good to go. Oh and my KA was dancing across the countertop on the last bit of mixing the brioche!
