I'm confused on one item: Add blackberries, reserve 3-4 berries.

Do you blend the berries into the egg/cream mixture or do they go in whole so you have whole berries in the custard?

I'm thinking blend, but the instructions make me think whole.

I mixed the cream into the egg mixture until just blended to keep the cream from bulking up. Also spooned the berries into the bottom of the custard cups then spooned the egg cream mixture over them. Also added hot water into the baking pan so water would not have to heat up in the oven first before the baking started.

This recipe has an omission. Linebb956 uses jumbo egg yolks. Anyone trying this recipe needs to use jumbo egg yolks or double up on large egg yolks. OR use 2 large whole eggs, not just the yolk. The egg white helps keep the body of the custards shape in tact when it is plated.

Had to make this recipe twice to get it right.
I suggest beating the eggs first.
Then adding the sugar; tablespoon at a time while beating.
Scald the cream then temper the eggs by adding a spoonful of cream at a time to the eggs.
Portion the blackberries into the custard cups then spoon the custard over the blackberries.
