Custard Sauce
This recipe has been in the family for generations. I'm not surprised at its popularity, because it can be used in a variety of ways. We especially like it served over pound cake and gingerbread or simply topped with fresh strawberries.

This DOES not thicken at 160 degrees. Will not. Went back and looked at other recipes and they used cornstarch. Same amounts of the other ingredients. Went back and added the cornstarch. This recipe is not complete.
I made half the recipe. Followed instructions exactly. It never got "thick enough to coat a metal spoon". I cooked and stirred it for 45 minutes. I see the total time as listed at 15 minutes.
