2 cups heavy cream

2 tablespoons Spice Islands 100% Pure Bourbon Vanilla Extract

Preheat oven to 325°F.
Scald cream using a double boiler, if available.
Whisk eggs, sugar and vanilla in a separate bowl. Temper the eggs by mixing 2 tablespoons of hot cream into the yolk mixture. Stir the tempered yolks into the cream. Strain cream and evenly divide the mixture between 5 broil-safe ramekins. Place ramekins in a 1-inch waterbath.
