Coconut Custard Cups image

This is a great recipe for a quick & easy dessert! In fact, it is very similar to the Baked Coconut Cup Custard recipe from the famous Frances Virginia Tea Room Cookbook (from Atlanta, Georgia), except that recipe uses 1 cup of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla & suggests topping with whipped cream. Enjoy, y'all! =^..^=

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 c flaked coconut
4 c milk
4 eggs
3/4 c white sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
pinch of salt
some nutmeg, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Place 8 ovenproof custard cups in a large lasagna pan.
  • 2. Divide the coconut into the custard cups. If someone doesn't like coconut, leave it out of theirs. =^..^=
  • 3. In a large (8 cup) measuring cup or mixing bowl, put the milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Mix well with a mixer or a whisk. Divide equally into the custard cups.
  • 4. If desired, sprinkle with nutmeg. (Actually, I only put it on the cups without coconut, but suit yourself.)
  • 5. Set the pan of custard cups on a pulled out oven shelf.
  • 6. Fill a pitcher with hot tap water and CAREFULLY pour the hot water into the large pan to a depth of about 1 inch, taking care that the water doesn't go into the custard cups.
  • 7. CAREFULLY push the oven shelf back in place, close the oven door, and set the timer for about 45 minutes. Check with a knife to see if the knife comes out clean. If not, bake a few more minutes & check again.
  • 8. If you want browned coconut, once the custard is done, turn on the broiler and crack open the oven door. Just stand there & watch closely because when the coconut browns, it will happen QUICKLY! Cups without coconut should be removed before browning with the broiler.
  • 9. Once the custard is perfect for you, carefully remove each custard cup from the water bath & cool on a baking rack. When the custard has cooled, refrigerate until ready to serve.

I baked these coconut custard cups in a muffin tin instead of ramekins, and they turned out perfectly. Just be sure to adjust the baking time accordingly.

I added a few drops of coconut extract to the custard mixture, and it really took the flavor up a notch. Highly recommend!

I love that this recipe uses coconut milk instead of regular milk. It gives the custard cups a richer, more tropical flavor.

These coconut custard cups were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good. I think I would use less sugar next time.
