Custard for Banana Cream Pie Filling

In a large sauce pan, beat 6 egg yolks, 1 1/2 C. Sugar, 6 T. Cornstarch, and 1/2 tsp. Salt;stir in

3C. milk, and 2 T. butter. Cook over med. heat, stirring constantly, until the butter melts and the mixture thickens about 6 minutes.

Remove pan from heat and stir in 2 tsp. Mexican Vanilla.

Transfer custard to a l bowl, and cover with plastic wrap on its surface to prevent skin from forming. Refrigerate for 2 hours. Whip 1 C. whipping cream and fold into the cooled custard. Slice 3 bananas into each prepared and cooled crust and spoon custard over them.

Chill.

( if you can wait! - Or eat the custard without a crust, either way you won't be dissapointed!)

This makes enough custard for two- 10" pies:) YUMMY! Or make 3 smaller pies, you get the idea, it makes a lot.. it can be halved- but why would you do that if you are going to the trouble to make one, share with a neighbor, or friend, teacher, have a party:)
