Add
enough water to come 1/2 way up the sides of the cups.
Bake until the custard is set,
approximately 1 hour.
Remove the custard cups from the water bath and allow to cool.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
Before serving, sprinkle each top with 1/2
tablespoon of sugar.
Place them under the broiler in the oven for 2 minutes just to caramelize
the sugar.
