3 Stars for now, my custard did not congeal, and I would not recommend making 2 kinds from the same batch unless you have a helper to stir in the chips right away. The lesson; not all substitutions are created equal. I had limited selection at my store, chose Junket Vanilla Custard; I used 1/2 skim milk and 1/2 heavy whipping cream. The Junket package spoke of various things that could interfere with the congealing of the custard. So from a different store, I purchased Jello Custard mix and whole milk, so I can test this again and update my review. The result still tasted good, although quite sweet; wouldn't one expect that if normal custard is sweet, and then chocolate chips are added? I added additional chocolate chips in contrasting colors for my photo. Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders.

July 2008 update: VERY happy to be back on Zaar after about a two year absence due to having had no internet connection at home, and having been too unwell for a time so that getting re-connected wasn't even a priority!
<br>
<br>And really looking forward to getting back into the Zaar world and connecting again with the many wonderful people I knew before, and new people, of course!
