2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 cup sugar substitute (e.g., Splenda)

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 cups skim milk, chilled
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Mix 2 cups milk, cornstarch and sugar substitute in small saucepan; heat to boiling; boil stirring constantly for 1 minute.
Beat eggs in medium bowl. Mix about half of milk mixture into eggs; then add this egg mixture to remaining milk in saucepan. Cook over low heat until slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and cinnamon. Cool to room temperature; refrigerate until chilled, or until serving time.
Stir 2 cups milk into custard mixture; serve in small glasses or punch cups. Sprinkle lightly with nutmeg.
