Preparation

45 mins

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Prepare six 3/4 cup molds and place them in a large baking dish. In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, cream, and the piece of vanilla. Let the creams boil, cover the saucepan, remove from heat, and let cool for 10 minutes. Remove the piece of vanilla. In an electric mixer, beat the egg yolks and sugar. Gradually add the cream mixture and incorporate well with the mixer. Pour the custard into the 6 molds. In the baking dish, add water until it covers half of the cream molds. Bake the custards for 35 minutes, remove from the oven, and refrigerate for 2 hours. Preheat your oven's broiler. Sprinkle the custards with the 9 tablespoons of sugar. Bake for approximately 3 minutes or until the sugar has melted.
