FILL ramekins with ½ cup of the mixture and POUR boiling water around them halfway up the sides. BAKE for 25-30 minutes or until puffed and set.
- Meanwhile, MELT butter in a large skillet and ADD butter, 2 tablespoons sugar, and pears and SAUTÉ over medium heat until slightly softened.
- REMOVE custards from the oven and carefully REMOVE them from the water bath using a spatula. PLACE cooked custards on a baking sheet and PREHEAT the broiler placing the rack 6” from the broiler. TOP custards with the pears and 1 teaspoon sugar each and PLACE under the broiler until the sugar melts and is lightly browned (3-5 minutes).
