Pumpkin Custard image

This easy Thanksgiving dessert is a refreshing departure from pumpkin pie, but it has the same good old-fashioned flavor. I like to make custard. It's a cinch to prepare even on your busiest days and especially good after a hearty holiday meal, when just a touch for the sweet tooth is all you need. -Andrea Holcomb, Torrington, Connecticut

I added a little bit of nutmeg to my custard, and it gave it a really nice warm flavor. I would definitely recommend adding some spices to your custard to give it a little extra flavor.
