Heat the remainder of the milk to boiling point. Slowly add the cold milk mix, bring again to boiling point. Add vanilla and salt to taste (about 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and dash of salt). Cube the bread and fry golden brown in the butter. Add the toasted bread at serving time. Note: This is what you fix for your kids (even us big kids) on a cold winter's day. They (and we) love it for lunch. *(If the sugar substitute and fat substitute are mad
