I could NOT make custard without lumps!!!!! .....until TODAY! :) wonderful, fool-proof recipe! YUMMMY! -
So yummy and easy to make, However I cheated and used the Kitchen Aid, which made it very smooth and lump free. I have been craving custard but I refuse to pay $6.00 at the local grocery store. WOW - This would make a really quick and wonderful dessert for company or picky grandchildren. Thank you so much for posting. I'm re-posting for my Facebook Buddies! -
this turned out fabulous though I did have to put it in for a minute longer but I think that is because I added the vanilla too soon otherwise awesome recipe thank you for posting!!!

Next time I might use a little less sugar - I found it a bit too sweet - but otherwise, impossible to complain. I made this on the stove and it was easy. I don't think I'll be buying custard powder again! -
This is easy and tastes great! We love it!!!

I am a proud mother of three healthy boys aged 15,11 and 5. I'm originally from the tiny island of Bermuda and have been living in Edinburgh since July 2005.
I've been collecting recipes since I was about 14 or 15 and been cooking and baking since then as well.
I love all kinds of crafts also. In my spare time if I'm not in the kitchen; I crochet, make jewelry, bead, knit, sew, cross stitch, do plastic canvas and quilt. I have a short attention span, so I have plenty of different craft choices when I get bored of doing something. Oh, and I also like to read, listen to music, fiddle with any electronic gadget, collect dvd's and watch them, and I'm an internetaholic! :-) I keep a craft blog at http://hobbyzu.blogspot.com and I sell my crocheted items and patterns at http://hobbyzu.com. I keep pretty busy and being self employed gives me more time to explore cooking! :-)
I'm mostly interested in cook books featuring regular old home cooking and favorites. When I moved to the UK I had to get rid of my cookbook collection. I did keep all my Bermudian cookbooks, charity cookbooks and 'The Foods of Israel Today' and Better Homes and Gardens 'Hometown Favorites'.

I am most passionate when it comes to my family and caring for them. Getting to feed them is an added bonus! Lucky for me, my boys are steadily growing pigs with bottomless pits for stomachs! lol :-)
