Coffee Pots Recipe

Directions

1. 1
   Heat the oven to 325 degrees F. Bring the cream and coffee to a boil in a saucepan.
2. 2
   Meanwhile, beat the sugar and egg yolks together in a bowl until light and fluffy.
3. 3
   If youd thought of adding a shot of alcohol or other flavoring, this is the time.
4. 4
   Slowly pour the scalded coffee milk into the egg mixture, whisking constantly.
5. 5
   Strain into six 1/2-cup ramekins.
6. 6
   Skim off any foam that forms on top (if it bothers you).
7. 7
   Set the ramekins into a baking dish and pour around boiling water to come halfway up their sides.
8. 8
   Bake until just set, about 30 minutes.
9. 9
   Remove from the oven and cool, then refrigerate for several hours, or overnight, before serving.
