This is almost identical to my favorite recipe (mine has 2 eggs and 3/4 cup of white sugar.) I think the evaporated milk is what makes this special; it's custardy but not too rich. I like to mix the spices into the sugar before adding to the other ingredients to make sure that they are evenly distributed. Always gets compliments. -
have made this twice now and it is a lovely recipe and very easy to make. I used ready made (cooked) sweet pastry cases and it worked really well.

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!!
I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch.
We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
