Baked Custard
Silky smooth, Baked Custard is always a welcome dessert (warm or cold). Easy to make family favorite amongst all ages !

Baked Custard is another one of my all time favorite desserts. We usually prefer this delicious treat cold, but slightly warm is just as good.
Today’s recipe is one of those melt-in-the-mouth types, which of course is always a delight. Served with whipped cream and perhaps a toffee, caramel or chocolate sauce drizzle and you have a winner.
What I like most, is that Custard is popular to all ages. Therefore you can whip it up, and chances are that your family or friends would all enjoy this delicious treat.

I love custard! My Mom made it all the time for us. But, I have one question, do you use the whole egg or just the yolks? In other recipes, I see that only the yolk is used, so I want to be sure!
?
Thanks!

Hi Rachel, I use whole eggs (white and yolk). Hope you enjoy the recipe as much as we do ? !
