Raspberry Custard Cups Recipes

RASPBERRY CUP CUSTARD WITH GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees and set a rack in the middle.
• In a small mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, 1/2 cup of the sugar, and the melted butter. Divide the mixture among 4 (1-cup) custard cups and press down to form a crust on the bottom.
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the cream and 1 tablespoon of the remaining tablespoon of sugar. Scald and remove from the heat. In a large mixing bowl, combine the yolks, the remaining tablespoon of sugar, vanilla, and rum. Whisk lightly, just to combine.
• Whisking lightly, gradually drizzle the scalded cream mixture into the egg mixture to warm it without scrambling the eggs. Strain the mixture and pour into custard cups. Place 6 raspberries in each cup, dunking them so they are coated with custard.
• Arrange the cups in a roasting pan and pour in hot water halfway up the sides. Cover the pan with foil and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the custards are set. Cool in the pan, then refrigerate, covered, up to 2 days ahead.
• If you like, sprinkle a light layer of sugar over each custard and place under a preheated broiler for about 2 to 4 minutes, watching that they don't burn. Serve immediately after glazing.

BAKED RASPBERRY CUSTARD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a deep-dish pie pan.
• Spread raspberries into the prepared pan and top with 1/4 cup white sugar.
• Blend milk, eggs, 1 1/4 cups white sugar, flour, unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and salt together in a blender until smooth and creamy; slowly pour over raspberries. Sprinkle coarse sugar over the floating raspberries.
• Bake in the preheated oven until custard is raised in the middle and top is lightly browned, 45 to 50 minutes.

RASPBERRY CUSTARD CUPS

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, egg, flour and cornstarch; mix well.
• Add the milk and vanilla. Stir well with a wire whisk.
• Bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking constantly. Cook and stir for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the custard thickens. Pour into a bowl.
• Add the softened cream cheese. Stir for two minutes or until the cheese melts. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes or until the custard cools.
• Preheat the broiler. Pour the custard into six oven-proof custard cups set on a baking sheet. Press the berries into the custard. Broil four inches from the heat for two minutes or until the custard is golden in color.
• Sprinkle with the brown sugar. Set aside for one to two minutes or until the sugar melts. Alternately, if you want the sugar to brulée, put them back under the broiler briefly. Be sure to watch them carefully and pull them out when the sugar is bubbly but before it burns.

BAKED RASPBERRY CUSTARD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In oven, melt butter in a 9-inch pie plate, about 6 minutes.
• In a blender, combine milk, eggs, 1/2 cup sugar, flour, salt, and vanilla. Add melted butter and blend mixture until smooth, 30 seconds.
• Distribute berries evenly in pie plate and pour batter over top. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar and bake until slightly puffed and just set in middle, 20 to 25 minutes. Heat broiler and broil until top is deep golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve warm.

RASPBERRY CUSTARD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Place 1 tablespoon preserves, then 6 berries in each of six 3/4 cup custard cups or ramekins. Whisk sugar, eggs, yolks, vanilla and salt to blend in medium bowl. Heat half and half over medium heat until tiny bubbles form around edge of pan. Gradually whisk half and half into egg mixture. Evenly divide custard mixture among cups with berries. Set cups into 13x9x2-inch baking pan. Pour enough hot water into baking pan to reach halfway up sides of cups.
• Place pan with custards in oven; bake until custards are just set in center, about 35 minutes. Remove custards from water and cool 10 minutes. Refrigerate at least 2 hours. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and keep refrigerated.)

RASPBERRY CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• Line a 9 inch pie plane with pastry; trim to 1/2 inches beyond edge of plate.
• Flute edges; set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs.
• Add the sugar, flour, milk, vanilla and salt; mix well.
• Gently fold in raspberries; pour into crust.
• For topping, combine flour and brown sugar in a small bowl; cut in butter until crumbly; sprinkle over filling.
• Bake at 400 for 10 minutes.
• Reduce heat to 350, bake 45-50 minutes longer or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
• Cool on a wire rack.
• Refrigerate leftovers.
