Title: Caramelized Baked Custards
Categories: Dairy, Booze, Eggs
Yield: 6 servings
2 c Heavy whipping cream
1/4 c Irish cream liqueur
3 lg Eggs
2 lg Egg yolks
3/4 c Sugar; +2 tb, divided
1 ts Vanilla extract
Set oven @325 F/165 C.
In a saucepan, heat cream and liqueur until bubbles form
around sides of pan; remove from heat. In a large bowl,
whisk eggs, egg yolks and 3/4 cup sugar until blended
but not foamy. Slowly stir in hot cream mixture. Stir in
vanilla.
Place six 6 oz broiler-safe ramekins in a baking pan
large enough to hold them without touching. Pour cream
mixture into ramekins. Place pan on oven rack; add very
hot water to pan to within 1/2" of tops of ramekins.
Bake 20-25 minutes or until a knife inserted in the
center comes out clean; centers will still be soft.
Immediately remove ramekins from water bath to a wire
rack; cool 10 minutes. Refrigerate until cold.
To caramelize topping with a kitchen torch, sprinkle
custards evenly with remaining sugar. Hold torch flame
about 2" above custard surface and rotate it slowly
until sugar is evenly caramelized. Serve immediately or
refrigerate up to 1 hour.
To caramelize topping in a broiler, place ramekins on a
baking sheet; let stand at room temperature 15 minutes.
Preheat broiler. Sprinkle custards evenly with remaining
sugar. Broil 3 to 4" from heat 5-7 minutes or until
sugar is caramelized. Serve immediately or refrigerate
up to 1 hour.
