Coffee Caramel Rich Creme
From inmaculada 16 years agoIngredients
- For the caramel you will need: shopping list
- 1/2 cup sugar shopping list
- 2 tablespoons water shopping list
- For the custard: shopping list
- 3/4 cup milk (I used semi-skimmed) shopping list
- 1 cup cream, heavy or light shopping list
- 1 large egg + 4 large egg yolks shopping list
- 1 tablespoon espresso powder shopping list
- 1/3 cup sugar shopping list
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract shopping list
- pinch of cinnamon shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 300ºF.
- Cook the sugar, corn syrup, and water in a saucepan set over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is boiling. Cover the pan and let the syrup boil for 3 minutes. Uncover the pan and continue to cook until the sugar turns medium-amber color. Note: Keep a close watch on the pan, as the sugar will go from amber to burned very quickly. Carefully divide the syrup among four 4-ounce ramekins. Tilt and turn the ramekins to coat as much of the inner surface as possible with the hot syrup; it sets up quickly, so work fast. Reheat briefly in the microwave if needed. Set aside to cool.
- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the custard ingredients until the sugar is dissolved. Pour through a fine sieve to remove any lumps. Divide the custard mixture between the caramel-coated ramekins. Place the cups in a 9" x 9" (or larger) pan, place the pan in the oven, and fill the pan with hot (not boiling) water.
- Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the center of one registers 175°F on an instant-read thermometer. The custards will look set around the edges, but should have a wobbly spot about the size of a nickel in the middle. Turn off the oven and prop the door open, allowing the custards to cool in the water bath for 15 minutes. Remove from the water and cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
