Honey Custard Recipe
Terrific little trifle served in individual wine glasses. Delightful light honeyed Grand Marnier Fluff. Delicious after a heavy meal, not too filling just the right touch to end a special meal with friends.

Delicous sounding - love that grand marnier!!


I like this. Just printed it out. One suggestion. Use pasteurized egg whites from the grocery. Some eggs today have Salmonella inside the shell. It's something that developed about a decade ago and the problem is increasing. Which means we are going to have to look at our old recipes. Restaurants today are not allowed to use eggs or egg whites that are not pasterurized in recipes where the eggs are not fully cooked. And its a good policy for home cooks. Who wants to get sick from a dessert? The egg whites are sold in pint cartons and even Wal-Mart stocks them. It's all we use. Looking forward to making this.


Thanks Chef! I do use the pasteurized eggs myself. This recipe dates back to 1963 in Mom's cramped writing. I also use those eggs that are "supposedly" safe in the shell. Dang, if I can remember the name now? I'll look next time I'm in Publix.
