- CUSTARD:whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, cornstarch and 1/4 cup of the milk in a bowl. In a heavy saucepan heat the remaining milk over medium-high heat until tiny bubbles form around the edges. Gradually whisk into egg yolk mixture. Pour mixture back into saucepan and cook over medium-high heat constantly whisking for about 3 minutes or until custard boils and thickens up. Take off stove and stir in vanilla. Pour into a small bowl and place a piece of waxed paper directly on the custard surface and refrigerate until completely cooled.
- make jelly according to the directions on package. Add in lemon rind. Refrigerate until chilled but not set. About 20 - 25 minutes.

- Pour chilled jelly over top and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
- Spread cooled custard over the set jelly.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 8.
- When ready to serve, whip cream and decorate over custard layer. I like to garnish with a few raspberries and slivered almonds.
