Catalinas Coconut Custard

I am testing a coconut custard recipe for Catalina for her to enter in a Food Network Magazine contest. Its a family recipe that has been passed down for generations. So needless to say there is no written recipe. Its all been passed down verbally. So I am trying to make it and write the recipe to go with it for all others to recreate. She has told me how to do it 3 times now. The first time was when I was at her house. The second time was Wednesday and the third time was today. When she told me the recipe on Wednesday I was expecting to make it Thursday. But I ran out of time.....So I got around to it today. I was looking at the notes she gave me...basically the ingredients and could not remember clearly the process. So I had to cal her and get refreshed on how it is made. So I have made it (still not sure if I did it the way I was told). It is now cooling on the counter before it can go in the fridge to cool completely. I can't wait to try it later and call her to tell her how it went. Now to write everything down I did!!!! I will let you know how it comes out!
