Low-Fat Chocolate Amaretto Custard (6 PTS) Recipe - Cooking Index
| 3/4 cup | Sugar for caramelizing | |
| 1 tablespoon | Water | |
| 8 | Eggs | |
| 2/3 cup | Sugar | |
| 1 1/2 tablespoons | Unsweetened cocoa powder | |
| 1/2 tablespoon | Ground espresso | |
| 2 cups | Milk | |
| 200 x | Amaretti cookies - very finely crushed | |
| (1 1/4 cups) |
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Put the 3/4 cup sugar in a small saucepan and place over moderate heat. Cook
until sugar dissolves and turns a rich golden-brown, gently swirling skillet
as necessary to dissolve sugar (don't stir). Add water and stir until
incorporated. Pour caramel into an 8-inch round baking dish or pan.
Beat the eggs with the sugar until light. Stir in cocoa, espresso, milk and
crushed cookies, in that order. Pour mixture into baking dish. Cover with
foil. Bake about 50 minutes. The custard should crack in the middle when
done -- this is OK. Cool completely. If there is time, cover and refrigerate
at least 8 hours.
Before serving, bring to cool-room temperature; then unmold onto a large
plate.
