• In a saucepan, bring the milk to a boil on medium heat.
• Meanwhile, mix the flour and sugar together.
• Break 3 egg yolks in another bowl and beat slightly. Reserve the egg whites.
• Pour half the boiling milk in the flour-sugar mixture and whisk vigorously to break any lumps. Mix the beaten egg yolks as well.
• Add the rest of the milk to the mixture. Return to cook over medium heat until the mixture thickens.
• Remove from the heat and add the softened butter. Add the Grand Marnier. This is a pastry cream.
