Number Of Ingredients 10

Unsalted butter, melted, for custard cups
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons instant espresso powder
3 large egg yolks
1 large whole egg
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
1 ounce shaved chocolate, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Place a roasting pan 3/4 full of hot water in an oven heated to 300 degrees. Brush four 6-ounce custard cups with melted butter. Set aside. Combine the cream, milk, and espresso in a small saucepan over medium heat and bring almost to a simmer. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Whisk together egg yolks, whole egg, sugar, vanilla, and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Add a little of the hot milk mixture to the egg mixture, and whisk well. Add the remaining milk mixture, and whisk again to combine well. Strain mixture through a sieve. Pour into the custard cups, and place in water bath in the oven, making sure that the water comes 3/4 of the way up sides of cups. Bake until the custard is set, about 35 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and water bath. Cool for about 20 minutes. Loosen custards with a knife. Invert onto serving dishes; top with chocolate. Alternatively, refrigerate, and turn out when needed.

This custard was a disaster! It curdled and I had to throw it all away.

The custard was a bit runny, but the flavor was still good. I think I'll try cooking it for a little longer next time.

This custard was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

This coffee custard was a delightful treat! The custard was creamy and smooth, with a rich coffee flavor. The topping was perfectly crunchy and added a nice contrast to the custard. I would definitely make this again.
