Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 ounces strawberries (7 or 8 large berries), hulled
3 tablespoons superfine sugar
4 large egg yolks
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 1/2 tablespoons Cointreau

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees. In the container of a blender, combine strawberries, sugar and egg yolks. Process until pureed.
  • Bring a kettle of water to a boil. Pass strawberry mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl. Add 1 cup cream and Cointreau. Mix well. Divide mixture evenly among four 1-cup ramekins. Place ramekins in a baking dish, and add enough boiling water to come halfway up the sides of ramekins.
  • Place baking dish in the oven, and bake until the custard is just set, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven; place ramekins on a rack, and cool. Cover with foil or plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 6 hours. To serve, pour 1 or 2 tablespoons of cream on top of each custard, so that each time a spoonful is eaten, cream fills the hole.
