How to Make Berries With Custard Sauce Diabetic

In a heavy medium saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup granulated sugar substitute (such as Splenda), 1/4 cup cornstarch, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Gradually whisk in 2 cups of milk until smooth.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a gentle boil. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Continue to cook and stir for 2 minutes more to ensure the custard is fully cooked.
Remove from heat.
In a separate bowl, whisk 2 large egg yolks lightly.
Gradually whisk about 1 cup of the hot custard mixture into the egg yolks, tempering them to prevent curdling.
Pour the tempered egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining custard.
Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the custard is just bubbly and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Do not boil.
Remove from heat.
Immediately pour the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl to remove any lumps.
Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and an additional 1-2 tablespoons of granulated sugar substitute, to taste.
Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours, to allow the flavors to meld and the custard to fully chill.
To serve, divide 2 cups of your favorite fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, etc.) among 6 dessert dishes.
Spoon the chilled custard over the berries and serve immediately.
