Another Cooking Light recipe with none other than Kahlua, which I love in desserts! Prep time does not include refrigeration time. Ingredients:
3/4 cup sugar, divided |
1/4 cup water |
cooking spray |
3 cups 2% low-fat milk |
2 tablespoons instant espresso granules (or 1/4 cup instant coffee granules) |
3 tablespoons kahlua |
2 large eggs |
2 large egg whites |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine 1/2 cup sugar and water in a small, heavy saucepan, and cook over medium-high heat until sugar dissolves, stirring frequently. Continue cooking 10 minutes or until golden; stir constantly. Immediately pour into 6 (6-oz) custard cups coated with cooking spray, tipping quickly until caramelized sugar coats bottom of cups.
2. Combine milk and espresso in a medium saucepan over medium heat; cook 5 minutes or until espresso dissolves (do not boil). Remove from heat; stir in 1/4 cup sugar and Kahlua.
3. Combine eggs and egg whites in a large bowl; stir well with a whisk. Gradually add hot milk mixture to egg mixture, stirring constantly. Divide mixture evenly among prepared custard cups. Place cups in a 13x9 inch baking pan; add hot water to pan to a depth of 1 inch. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until a knife inserted in center comes out clean. Remove cups from pan; cool completely on a wire rack. cover and chill at least 8 hours.
4. Loosen edges of custard with a knife or rubber spatula. Place a dessert plate upside down, on top of each cup, and invert custards onto plates. Drizzle any remaining syrup over custards.
