Baked Egg Custard



So many of my friends and families have been asking for this recipe. And here it is!

  Its SO delicious i can finish em all by myself! So yeah... Practically i was having them as dessert for the past few days~ This recipe serves two but i poured them into 4 3oz ramekins so it became 4!

  So... I really don't know how to describe this, the texture and the taste and stuff, but what i can say is, it's delicious!! For those who really can't take the taste of milk, not even a bit of it, maybe this is not the recipe you're looking for. But i'm not a milk lover or anything close to it or some kinda, dairy product lover or whatsoever... [*shrug] Well, I love it! =D

Now let's get started~ ;)
