Waffle Gravy

Submitted by Kate S.

"There is no better way to enjoy waffles than to top them with this mildly sweet, made-from-scratch, custard pudding. It's a German Mennonite recipe, and this is the version that's used in my family. Looking around on the web, I found some other variations: 1. Use 1/2 c of waffle batter in place of the cornstarch, egg, and salt. 2. Substitute flour for the cornstarch, omit egg and salt, stir 2-8 T butter into the finished sauce."
