I added a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the custard and it really enhanced the flavor.

I didn't have any prunes on hand, so I used raisins instead. It turned out great!

The custard was a bit runny for my taste. I think I would have cooked it for a few minutes longer.

This prune custard was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less sugar.
