Beat the eggs lightly. Gradually stir 1 cup of the hot mixture into the yolks, and beat vigorously with a whisk (to ensure that you don't end up with scrambled eggs!). Return the egg mixture to the saucepan and bring the entire mixture to a low boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes before removing from heat. The mixture will be rather thick, but still pourable.

Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Moscato Dasti, Port

Cream Sherry, Moscato d'Asti, and Port are my top picks for Cupcakes. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. One wine you could try is NV Solera Cream Sherry. It has 4.5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 17 dollars.

The Solera Cream Sherry has a brilliant amber and deep copper hue. With butterscotch and pecan aromas, the sweet salted nut and brown spice aromas carry a complex caramel accent. A sweet entry leads to a rounded, lush, moderately full-bodied palate with a lengthy, flavorful finish.
