Delicious! I was very careful tempering my egg, but apparently not careful enough as I could taste a few little lumps here and there. Note to self to run through a seive next time just as a precaution. Light, creamy with deep vanilla flavor. Only change was to drop butter to about half called for.

Delicious! Mine was a little runny, but maybe it's because I didn't chill it in the fridge before using it in a trifle recipe. It's also pretty sweet so I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time. I have no doubt this beats the packaged stuff. Not hard to make at all. I didn't temper the egg york with all the milk mixture. I made 14 servings with 7 cups of milk but only used about 2 cups to temper the yolks. I then slowly poured the tempered yolks back in the hot milk while stirring vigorously. Worked out fine!

This was so easy to make and the taste delightful. I WILL NEVER BUY BOX PUDDING AGAIN. EVERYTHING WE NEEDED WAS IN MY CUPBOARDS/FRIDGE

I just made this recipe tonight, and I have to say that I am pleased beyond words. Creamy, sweet, light and delicious. I have to be honest, though, and say I used 1/2 T more sugar and I used half n half for the milk. Delicious !

I have made pudding since college out of the better homes and garden cookbook that is a million years old. This is my first time to look at another and this was...... Better! Not too sweet and very creamy. I used a mix of half and half and skim to try and get some creamy consistency with what I had on hand. Thanks

Delicious and easy! I tripled the recipe (only doubling salt and vanilla), included a cinnamon stick while cooking, and added 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips. Delicious! It tastes so rich and 'old-fashioned' but actually isn't very fattening, mostly milk :)

Very good, very simple. I've made this several times, and I really like it. It makes a small two servings. It's not too bad when it comes to homemade pudding calorie/fat wise. I've also made it with brown sugar. 3--4 tablespoons brown sugar makes a light butterscotch pudding. I love this recipe.

Pudding just the way it should be. Creamy and not too sweet. I sliced bananas on top of individual serving dishes just before serving. A dollop of whipped cream would have made it "Banana Creme Pie in Dish".
