Traditional baked custard with half the calories. Made with Equal and reduced-fat milk, all the great flavor is still there. Garnished with fresh fruit and mint it looks good, too.

Ingredients

• 1 quart 2% milk
• 6 eggs
• 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons Equal® Spoonful*
• 2-1/2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
