Steps:

• 2. In a medium saucepan, heat the milk and the butter/oleo. DO NOT LET BOIL; you just want it warm.
• 3. Beat the 3 eggs, 2/3 cup sugar, and the salt together with a mixer set on medium for about 2 minutes.
• 4. Add the milk/oleo mixture and stir. Make sure this is not too hot or else you'll end up cooking the eggs.
