Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
9 egg yolks
2 1/2 cups heavy cream
3/4 cup half-and-half
3/4 cup granulated sugar
6 tablespoons demerara sugar

Preheat oven to 225 degrees. Place egg yolks in mixing bowl. Heat cream,
half-and-half and granulated sugar until warm. Slowly stir into the yolks.
Place six ramekins in a tray and fill with above mixture to the top. Fill
tray two-thirds of the way up with hot water. Bake for 1-1/2 to 2 hours, or
until set. Remove and chill. Place one tbsp. of Demerara sugar on the top
of each ramekin. Glaze under a very hot broiler until brown, chill again and
serve. The reason the oven temperature is kept low in the baking of this
delicious dessert is to keep the water from boiling. If the water boils, your
eggs may scramble when cooking.
