My grandmother's floating island custard

1 Cake

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 quart Sweet milk
2 Eggs, well beaten
¼ cup Sugar
1 tablespoon Cornstarch
1 teaspoon Vanilla

Directions

(My Grandmother was born in 1873 - this was HER mother's recipe!) DIRECTIONS (As I recall watching her make it): Cook milk, eggs, sugar and cornstarch until thickened. Remove from heat, add vanilla. Cool and refrigerate.

NOTE: This custard is the consistency of gravy. Grandmother always kept this in a quart jar and it was always served with her homemade Angel Food Cakes.
