My Grandmother's Floating Island Custarddesserts 1 quart sweet milk 2 eggs, well beaten 1/4 cup sugar 1 tablespoon cornstarch 1 teaspoon vanilla (My Grandmother was born in 1873 - this was HER mother's recipe!) DIRECTIONS (As I recall watching her make it): Cook milk, eggs, sugar and cornstarch until thickened. Remove from heat, add vanilla. Cool and refrigerate. NOTE: This custard is the consistency of gravy. Grandmother always kept this in a quart jar and it was always served with her homemade Angel Food Cakes.
