Nice custard. Used with the your Italian Sponge Cake. I will make custard again and try adding different flavors such as chocolate, lemon, or strawberry.

I made this filling exactly as in the recipe, and it turned out perfect, exactly the recipe I remember from my childhood. I used this to fill profiteroles, and it was a huge hit with my guests. Thanks so much for posting this.
