Ingredients

  • 1 pint whipping cream
  • 4 egg yolks
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp vanilla
  • 4 tbsp sugar topping granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp sugar topping brown sugar

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a saucepan, heat the cream over low heat until bubbles form around the edge of the pan. Beat the egg yolks and sugar together until thick, about 3 minutes. Gradually beat into the warm cream.
  2. Stir in the vanilla and pour into 6 (6-ounce) custard cups. Place the cups in a baking pan with about 1/2 inch water in the bottom. Bake until set, about 45 minutes.
  3. Remove the custard cups from the water and refrigerate until well chilled. Combine the topping ingredients. Sprinkle each custard with about 2 teaspoons of the sugar blend. Place on the top rack under the broiler and cook until the topping is medium brown. Chill before serving.
