I don't know how I've got to the age of 37 and never made up some Birds Custard with the tin of powder but anyhow....
am making a trifle. I have prepared custard with a pint of milk as per the "recipe" on the tin. It's been on the boil and have stirred it etc but it still doesn't seem a thick custardy consistency. Does it thicken up as it cools or what? My mum told me that when I put it on the trifle it's best if it's cooled down, but I just can't imagine it getting thick enough.
It certainly doesn't look as thick as me.
