That's the same recipe I use too, Hannelore. It is a really good one!! Maybe you already know this, but here is a hint on making the icing. I mix the the egg yolks and milk in the blender to throughly combine, and then add it to the saucepan. Then helps so there isn't little specks of cooked eggs floating around in the icing. Also, when the icing is done cooking, and after I had added the coconut and pecans,I set the icing in a bowl of ice with a little water & stir until thick and cool enough to spread.
