Ingredients
- 1 quart of rich cream
- 8 eggs
- 1 vanilla bean
- cinnamon
Directions
1 quart of rich cream ; 8 eggs (yolks) ;
1 vanilla bean; Y lb- of granulated sugar.
Break the vanilla bean in pieces and add to cream; put into double boiler. Beat the yolks and add sugar. Pour the scalded cream over the egg mixture, straining out the vanilla bean. Let cool. Fill little custard-cups; set them in a pan of cold water. When the water boils the custards will be quite thick; put away over night, if convenient, and they will be very creamy and smooth. Before serv- ing sprinkle with granulated sugar and a little pow- dered cinnamon. — J. H. C.
