These custards were a little too firm for my taste. I would recommend baking them for a shorter amount of time next time.

These custards were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

These custards were easy to make and turned out great! I used a muffin tin instead of ramekins and they worked perfectly. The crust was a little crumbly, but the filling was so good that it didn't matter.

These custards were absolutely delicious! The macadamia crust was the perfect complement to the creamy custard filling. I will definitely be making these again.
