Dressing

Cooking Procedures :
 Prepare fruit mixture. Be sure all are well drained to avoid watery salad.

 Place in a large bowl. Set aside.

 In a saucepan, put condensed milk, thick cream and egg yolks. Stir until mixture is smooth.

 Cook in a double boiler (a cooking utensil consisting of two nested pans, designed to allow slow, even cooking of food in the upper pan by the action of water boiling in the lower pan). Add the butter about halfway of cooking.

 Stir occasionally until thickened. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.

 Transfer the dressing to the bowl of fruit mixture and mix. Do not over mix.

 Chill before serving.
