From Cooking Light May 1996. An easy and light version of my favorite dessert, creme brulee. Cooking time is 4 hours for chilling. Ingredients:
1/3 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
3 egg whites, lightly beaten |
1 egg, lightly beaten |
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated skim milk |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 (8 ounce) container reduced-fat cream cheese |
1 1/2 cups raspberries |
8 teaspoons light brown sugar |
Directions:
1. Combine first 5 ingredients in the top of a double boiler; stir well. Cook over simmering water 4 minutes or until thickened, stirring constantly with a wire whisk. 2. Remove from heat; add vanilla and cream cheese, stirring until smooth. Gently fold in raspberries. 3. Spoon 1/2 cup cheese mixture into each of 8 (6-ounce) ramekins or custard cups. Cover and chill at least 4 hours. 4. Sprinkle each serving with 1 teaspoon brown sugar. Place ramekins on a baking sheet; broil 1 minute or until sugar melts. Serve immediately. |
