This is DH's ideal dessert. It came out rich and smooth. I added two extra (farm fresh) eggs and 50% more sugar (for his tastes) and baked this at 300 F. It was done (set at the edges) at 60 minutes. This yielded 10 servings for me (using 3/4 cup size ramekins). Like Sharon, I sprinkled (freshly grated) nutmeg over them before baking. So creamy and delicious! -
This was just perfect comfort food! I used two small ramekins and two larger ones. I cooked the smaller ones 45 minutes and cooked the larger ones about 10 more minutes. So creamy! I might have added just a pinch more sugar. Just wonderful. Thanks! Made for PAC-Fall 2009.

I'm a 48 y/o gay Jewish man in the suburbs immediately north of New York City. I'm a general internist, practicing and teaching at a medical college north of NYC. I also earned a Masters in Public Health degree in 2013.
After a Walt Disney World trip in Dec 2006 where I had to rent an electric scooter because I couldn't manage the walking, I decided to have gastric bypass surgery, which was done Feb 28, 2007. I lost 160 lbs (though I've gained back about 60 of that since). I can't eat as much as I used to, so I want every bite to be extra good!
