Custard is a sweet and creamy dessert sauce or filling that is made by heating milk or cream with sugar and eggs until it thickens. It is typically flavored with vanilla, and sometimes with other ingredients like nutmeg or cinnamon. Custard can be served warm or cold, and is often used as a topping for pies or cakes, or as a filling for pastries and desserts like eclairs or cream puffs. It can also be eaten on its own as a dessert.
