Default just yolks

I have been making large batches of Italian buttercream and angel food cakes and have alot of yolks left over. I could use some advice as how to use them up.

I always like making curds (usually lemon) with my leftover yolks.

I'm always in the other camp. Too many egg whites left. Wana trade?
I use yolks in anything where I want to add a "sticking" ingredient and keep it rich.

Pan de Muertos (All Saints Day Bread) uses a whopping 12 yolks.

try making a french buttercreme. there is a really easy and delicious recipe in "the cake bible" ... it uses only yox.

edit: or you could buy just whites.. they are ok for cakes and such, right?
