Aunt Martha's Microwave Boiled Custard

Elizabeth Fullerton's Note:

I don't make too many things in the microwave, but this is an easy way to make this recipe.

• Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 10

• 1 quart sweet milk
• 4 egg yolks
• 3 tablespoons flour
• 1 cup sugar

Directions:

1. Add 1/2 sugar to milk and cook 5 minutes on high in microwave.
2. Add flour, mix well with remaining 1/2 cup sugar and cook 1 minute; stir.
3. Cook 1 more minute.
4. Beat egg yolks well and add 1 cup of hot milk mixture to eggs; mix well.

This was a great way to allow the kids to help with a holiday favorite. It was a liitle thicker than what we were used to, so I added some milk and a little cinnamon. It will be a favorite of ours!! Thanks
