Atkins Dessert Recipes

Ingredients:

1 cup heavy or whipping cream
2/3 cup water
3 tbsp praline sauce, strained
1 cinnamon stick
2 eggs

Instructions:

Heat oven to 325 degrees. In a small saucepan, bring cream, water, praline
sauce and cinnamon to a simmer. Remove from heat. Let stand 15 minutes;
remove cinnamon stick.

In a medium bowl, beat eggs; gradually whisk in about one-third of the
cream mixture. Return egg-cream mixture to the saucepan and whisk again
briefly.

Pour mixture through a strainer into four 6-ounce ramekins or custard cups.
Place cups in a large roasting pan; carefully pour enough boiling water
into pan to reach halfway up sides of cups. Cover entire pan with foil.
Bake 40 minutes, until custards are set in centers. Let cups stand in pan
at room temperature 15 minutes.

Remove cups and cover with plastic wrap (stretch plastic over cup edges to
avoid touching surface of custards). Refrigerate 2 hours, or until cold.

sauce.
