Very good and very easy. I also made this using a saucepan because I didn't have a double boiler and it turned out fine. I just kept it at a very low heat and stirred constantly. It took about 6-8 extra minutes of cooking after it thickened to get rid of the raw cornstarch taste for a total cooking time of about 20 minutes. I used this to fill chocolate cupcakes, YUM!
