Nothing is quicker than this dessert. It is easy enough to throw together even when there is unexpected company.—Vicki Fox, Marshal, North Carolina Ingredients:

3 tablespoons cornstarch |
3 cups milk |
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
2 tablespoons butter |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
2 cups chopped peeled fresh or frozen peaches |
1/4 cup flaked coconut, toasted |
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, combine the sugar and cornstarch. Stir in milk until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened and bubbly. Remove from the heat. Stir a small amount of hot mixture into eggs; return all to pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in butter and vanilla. Fold in peaches; sprinkle with coconut. Cover and refrigerate until serving. Yield: 4-6 servings. |
