Mom's Boiled Custard

1/2 gallon whole milk
1 3/4 c. sugar
6 whole eggs
vanilla, to taste

Beat eggs, milk, and sugar well. Cook in double boiler until good and hot or longer if you want it thick, stir constantly. Add vanilla to taste. Serve over vanilla ice cream.

OR:

Pour part of mixture in medium size microwave safe bowl. Cook on high 10-15 minutes. Check and stir. It should be sort of thick. Pour into container to cool. Continue to cook the rest of the mixture the same way. Use a mixer to beat out the lumps. When cool, put in refrigerator. Serve in a large (punch) bowl with vanilla ice cream.
