I had been making this for years with a recipe that called for bisquick. Finally you have submitted a money-saving version without that. Tonight I wanted this for dessert, but I had no vanilla pudding. Sooo I put on my thinking cap and decided to substitute the dry ingredientsfor a batch of cooked pudding-2 tablespoons corn starch, 1/3 cup sugar and a pinch of salt. When the milk was added I put in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. You'd never know the difference, but cost and preservatives have been reduced. Thanks for posing his all-time favorite!
