VANILLA CUSTARD CUPS (BAKED)



Vanilla Custard Cups (Baked) image

A recipe from TOH, this makes two servings of creamy, silken-textured custard with a delicate flavor. It is very simple to prepare, and the brown sugar gives just a hint of caramel. This recipe is formulated for 2 servings; cooking time would need to be increased for larger amounts.
