Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 325°F. Heat 1/2 cup of the sugar in medium nonstick skillet over medium heat 7 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently with wooden spoon, until sugar is melted and a light caramel color (mixture will be very hot and could melt a plastic spoon). Immediately pour sugar mixture into round pan, 8x1 1/2 inches; tilt pan to coat bottom. Place on wire rack to cool.
  • 2 Mix remaining 1/2 cup sugar, milk, egg product, salt and vanilla in large bowl. Pour mixture over sugar mixture in pan. Place in rectangular pan, 13x9x2 inches. Pour very hot water into rectangular pan to within 1/2 inch of top of round pan.
  • 3 Bake 50 to 60 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Remove round pan from pan of water. Cover; refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, about 3 hours or overnight. To unmold, run knife around edge of custard to loosen; invert onto serving platter. Top with fruit.

RE MelissaJ73: Splenda can be tricky to work with. Be sure that you are cooking it on low heat or a simmer.

OK so this recipe did not go well for me, and I'm hoping I can find out what I did wrong. I tried melting the splenda in the pan, but it did not turn to a liquid. It just burned. So I went ahead and baked the batter without the caramel base, adding some cinnamon. In a wierd way it tasted OK, but tasted like sweetened egg. Help...I would like to make this recipe the correct way, since the calories are so low!
