Very good. I made this for a family dinner and everyone really enjoyed it. My BF's father said that he had some the next day for breakfast and that he liked it even better chilled. I did use heavy cream instead of milk to give it more of a custard consistency. Also, I added 1 tsp. of vanilla as others suggested, however next time I would leave that out because I think it gave it a little too much sweetness. Delicious easy recipe, thank you!

Nothing real fancy about this homely little dish, but we will be adding it to our permanent repertoire. An extremely easy to make dish. I switched the quantities of sugar and milk...used one cup of milk and 1/3 cup sugar and it was plenty sweet enough. We subbed a large can of drained mixed fruit cocktail (didn't have any fresh peaches) and added a little vanilla (just because).

This was so cool! I'd never had a pie like this before. I used canned peaches because it's not peach season here and it was so tasty. I can't wait for the fresh ones to try this again.
