Thanks for that, Chookie . . . I'm looking forward to trying this - and Judy's vanilla version also . .

Made this again yesterday for a visitor today but as I had no cream in the fridge, decided to do a bit of tweaking.  I used 20g cornflour, 375g can light evaporated milk, 265g skim milk, 55g sugar, 1 good tablespoon coffee granules and the 2 eggs.  It set perfectly with no wobble and my guest thoroughly enjoyed it.

I had no cream so I have just made this using JD's tweak.  I also changed it to 1 tbl cocoa and 2 squares dark chocolate instead of the coffee.  Just had a quick taste when it was still hot and it is like a chocolate custard - would have loved to add a 1/4 cup of baileys but we were out 😯😯😯😳 don't know how that happened?

Will let you know in a couple of hours how this tastes!  And if it sets.

Interesting tweets girls.  My DIL loves the original.  I make it for her when she comes.
Snappy,  will be interested to hear how it goes.

It came out just like Choc yogo!  So DH was very impressed 😃

Only thing is that it does form a skin when cooling like custard so I would cover with gladwrap next time otherwise it is perfect.  It will be a staple around here 😛
