Method

In sauce pan scald milk, bring just to a boil and remove from heat. In a large bowl beat egg yolks, add sugar and salt. Stir a little of hot milk into eggs so you don't cook the eggs. Gradually add the rest of milk. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly for 20 minutes or until the custard coats your spoon. Remove from heat and add vanilla, almond flavoring and tequila. Pour in custard cups and refrigerate. When ready to serve stir lime juice into whipped topping. Put a big scoop on top of each custard and sprinkle with toasted almonds.

 

Notes: Tequila can be replaced by lime juice in the custard. For parties I like to use margarita glasses with sugared rims.

 

Number of Servings: 6 -8
