Do you have tried and true recipes that you use all the time? I have several that I keep taped to the inside of my cupboard. One of my favorites is crock pot custard; this fail safe treat is ready in about two and half hours and is always a family favorite.

Ingredients
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 2c scalded milk
- 3 eggs
- 1tsp vanilla
This bowl sits nicely in the crock pot above the water.
Put a few inches of water in the bottom of the crock pot then either sit a bowl on top of a rock or something that keeps it just above the water level or use a bowl that sits on the rim of the pot. Scald the milk in a pan or in the microwave. Add in the sugar. Beat the eggs with the vanilla then slowly add the milk and sugar mixture into the eggs; stirring all the time. Once all is mixed put in a bowl and suspend above the water in the pot. Cover and cook until a knife inserted comes out pretty clean. You can add lemon zest or chocolate to make different flavors.
I'd love to hear from you!
