As a child my Aunt made this favorite dessert for me but when I married and had kids who wouldn't eat hot cereals but loved this, I made it as a warm winter breakfast. Now my grandkids and great grandkids love it also. The ingredients are interchangeable with lower fat, almond or lactose free milk and less or substitute sugar and eggs but results will vary. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE WATER FOR MILK PRODUCTS. Leftovers can be eaten cold or lightly warmed in microwave as a snack or dessert. Passed thru my grams Pennsylvania Dutch ancestors, it is true comfort food no matter when you eat it.
