And it is delicious QuirkyJo  :D
I second that. I'm not a caramel or butterscotch fan but this was very nice. My family loved it over sliced banana.

I've made this twice now and both times it has been a hit with all the teenagers & my DH. Even my fussy 5 yr old likes it. Thanks Quirkycooking.

I made it yesterday just to try it. And it is a very nice alternative to vanilla custard and very easy to cook. I did replace the flour with 15g cornflour so i can serve for celiacos.

I have now tried this with real eggs, and I was very surprised the difference it made to the texture and taste.  I enjoyed it but this children liked it better the other way.  I also added one teaspoon of LSA which gave it a mild nutty taste which I enjoyed.

Jo this is currently Miss 4's favourite! We also use corn flour instead of plain flour, we prefer the consistancy with the cornflour.

A real winner, what ever you call it  ;)

That's good, ILB - my kids all seem to have different favourites with the custard - one always wants lemon, one want vanilla, one wants chocolate hazelnut... they just have to take turns!  Such a quick and after dinner treat!

The kids were asking for a caramel custard for dessert tonight (DS6 has just discovered he has 3 wobbly teeth and insists he can only eat smooth food) and we came across this one.

It got a definite thumbs up from everyone. I only had brown sugar rather than dark brown, and would probably use a bit less vanilla next time but it was a nice change from the standard vanilla.

Thanks for another good recipe Jo!

Glad you liked it! :) I find I like my custard with one egg yolk + 1 egg now - seems to be less 'eggy', and doesn't get curdly as it cools. Btw, if you use vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste, it's heaps nicer than vanilla essence. :)

DW or SWMBO just found this recipe by google searching quick Thernomix desserts. I suddenly found an iPad thrust at me and was told make me this. 

It is really good Jo and a nice change from the regular custard. I served it over some sliced banana.

I must try this recipe as the "Caramel Custard" recipe I have calls for 120g butter  :o and 120g brown sugar, and even though it is good (really really good) and the whole family love it, I try not to make it too often with all that butter. :( I'll make this tonight and see what the reaction is. But seeing as we don't have dessert very often I think they'll be happy!

I finally tried this out tonight.  It was very fast and very yummy.  We just had it over sliced banana.  I will definately be making this one over and over.
