Magic Custard Bars

These Magic Custard Bars are simply decadent. I've never seen a recipe like this. You have to try this one at least once!

A while back I was surfing Facebook (like everyone else) and came across a post for a recipe for a 3 Layered Magic Custard Bars.

This recipe claimed that during the baking process, the filling would separate into 3 layers by itself. I was skeptical so I went ahead and gave it a whirl. Now it's your turn.

I will be the first to admit that I don't know the science behind it, but it does what it says it's going to do and tastes absolutely fabulous.

📋 What Ingredients do I need

🥣 How to Make Magic Custard Bars

Preheat oven to 325°F.
Lightly grease a 9-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
In another large mixing bowl, beat the egg yolks, granulated sugar, butter, and a pinch of salt until mixture is well combined and it turns pale yellow. Slowly beat the milk into the egg yolk mixture. Add the vanilla extract and flour.
Fold the egg whites into the flour mixture a little at a time. Do not over mix.
Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 40 to 50 minutes or until set. The middle should be a little jiggly when you take it out.
Let cool completely in the refrigerator before cutting. Sprinkle liberally with powdered sugar before serving.
