I had made another of MS's Boston Cream Pie yesterday which was a complete flop. It was dense and undercooked and had to be thrown away. I found this video and recipe last night and was determined to have success since I had the pudding left from yesterday's flop. But traditional or not, it's simply delicious. Heat over medium heat until bubbles appear at the edges; set aside.
