My mom has been making this same, very basic custard recipe for years. I love it. Zoe loves it! I just ordered a set of 8 glass custard cups with lids so I can make a big batch of this! Lucky for me, my mom told me the recipe just in time- they're in Israel for 2 weeks so I wouldn't be getting it any time soon and on this cold, gloomy day, it sounds like the ultimate comfort food for me. :)
6 eggs
3c milk
2/3 c white sugar
1 tsp vanilla
*nutmeg, opt
*shredded coconut, opt
Mix all ingredients together, place in custard cups about 3/4 way full. Place in 9x13 and pour boiling water about 1/2 way up.
Put in a 350 degree oven and bake until set.
