Ingredients

  • 5 eggs
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 2-1/2 cups milk
  • 2 tablespoons caramel ice cream topping

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, vanilla and salt. Gradually stir in milk. Spoon 1 teaspoon caramel topping into each of 6 ungreased 6-oz. custard cups.
  2. Place cups in a 13x9-in. baking dish. Pour egg mixture into cups (cups will be full). Fill baking dish with 1 in. hot water.
  3. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until centers are almost set (mixture will jiggle). Remove custard cups from water to a wire rack; cool for 30 minutes.
