Its pudding! Yum. Anyone have any suggestions for multiplying the recipe? My kids ate this before it settled. Haha.

Made this recipe as given, using the full egg, & the resulting pudding was delicious! Simple to make, too, which is another plus! I'll be making this one again ~ Thanks for sharing the recipe!
