- 3 eggs - slightly beaten
- 2 cups light cream
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
Method :
- In a heavy saucepan, combine eggs, cream, sugar and salt. Cook and stir over low heat, until mixture coats a metal spoon. Cooks 2 minutes more. Stir in vanilla. Pour into 6 ramekins (@ 6 oz). Chill.
- Sift brown sugar equally among the 6 dishes and spread evenly on top. Using a torch melt the sugar and form a crispy top. Or if using oven, put the ramekins in a shallow pan of ice cubes and water (au bain marie), place it in the middle of rack and broil at 400 degree F for 4 to 5 minutes or until bubbly crust form.
- Serve warm or chilled.
