White Chocolate Pastry Cream
INGREDIENTS
6 egg yolks
5 tablespoons white sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
2 cups milk
1 vanilla bean, halved
2 tablespoons butter
3 ounces white chocolate
DIRECTIONS
In a medium bowl, whisk egg yolks and sugar until pale yellow. Whisk in corn starch. Set aside.
In a stainless steel saucepan, bring milk and vanilla bean to a boil, remove from heat and remove vanilla bean. Stir a small amount of the hot milk into the egg yolk mixture. Return milk to heat and while constantly stirring with a wooden spoon, slowly add the egg mixture to milk. Mixture will thicken.
Allow to just come to a boil, remove from heat and stir in butter. Put mixture through a sieve into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap (this keeps mixture from forming a skin over top). Cool slightly.
Stir in melted white chocolate, cover and refrigerate until ready to assemble pie. This pastry cream is used in the Elegant White Chocolate Banana Cream Pie.

You cannot make cream without a cow.
In modern milk production, cream is separated from milk with the use of a centrifuge called a separator. In less technical times, milk was poured into shallow pans and the cream rose naturally to the top. In Britain, cream that was skimmed from the top after 12 hours was called cream or single cream. Cream that wasn't separated until 24 hours had elapsed was called double cream.
It is possible to "water down" a rich cream with milk to approximate the fat content of light cream or half and half. It is sometimes possible (depending on the recipe and the role that the cream is to play) to substitute a evaporated milk for cream. It is possible in some recipes to leave out the cream entirely, perhaps substituting another liquid in its place, perhaps not. And occasionally, you can substitute a simple white sauce for cream in some dishes.

You cannot make cream. It is the part of the whole milk that is removed making the milk 2% or nonfat or such. You must buy cream in the store otherwise...
Get a cow, milk the cow, take the cream off the top and now you have cream.
