Directions:

When my friend gave me this recipe ...which granted is a little more work than most Broccoli Salads I have made, she told me it was addictive!
   Well only 2/3 of it made it to the table as I had to TASTE TEST several times. LOL
   My brother came over and I caught him swiping some more than once (guess he was tast testing too! ) before dinner.Here it is.
   
   Addictive Broccoli Salad
   
   Custard Dressing
   1 egg lightly beaten
   1/2 cup sugar
   1 1/2 tsp cornstarch
   1/4 cup vinegar
   1/4 cup water
   Whisk together stirring constantly over medium heat until thickened (I add the egg last folding it into about a half cup of warm dressing first) so egg doesn't cook .
   Remove from heat, stir in 1 TBSP butter
   Cool slightly then stir in 1/2 cup Mayo (I like Hellmanns lower fat but not fat free Mayo) Chill.
   
   Toss together 4-6 cups fresh broccoli florets, 6 slices cooked and crumbled bacon,1/2 medium Vidalia onion diced. .
   
   ****The last items are optional and dependant on taste and or occasion:
   1 can drained Mandarin oranges
   2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
   1/2 cup slivered almonds
   1/2 cup raisins
   
   Fold dressing into salad ingredients. Chill.
