This bouille is an old Cajun recipe from my mother-in-law. Mine never tastes quite as good as her for some reason! You can eat this warm by itself or use it a topper for sliced angel food cake or crumbled regular cake. You can top with chocolate syrup, cherries, etc.

- 6 eggs
- 4 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp almond flavoring (optional)
- 1 tbsp vanilla flavoring
- 2 cans 12 oz evaporated milk

Step 3
Dissolve cornstarch in water then add to egg mixture.
Step 4
Gradually add this mixture to milk, stirring CONSTANTLY until mixture begins to thicken. When thick, put in dessert bowls or pour over sliced cake.
