Birthday Custard

We went to a restaurant a few weeks ago and had 'pot de creme' for dessert. It was so yummy, so I wanted to make something similar to that for my birthday instead of cake. So, it was basically a creamy custard with blackberries and whipped cream on top. Here's the custard recipe I got from All Recipes:

CUSTARD
Ingredients:

1/2 cup sugar

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups half-and-half cream

1 teaspoon grated lemon peel

3 egg yolks, lightly beaten

2 tablespoons butter or margarine

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Directions:

In a saucepan, combine the sugar, flour and salt. Gradually add cream and lemon peel until blended. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened and bubbly. Remove from the heat. Stir a small amount of hot mixture into egg yolks. Return all to pan; bring to a gentle boil, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat; stir in butter and vanilla. Pour into four parfait glasses or dessert dishes. Cool. 

I just served it with blackberries just like the restaurant. It was really creamy and delicious!
