Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  4. Pour the mixture through a strainer into another bowl.
  5. Carefully pour the strained mixture into each ramekin, filling them about three-quarters full.

Notes

Serve chilled for the best flavor and texture. Pairs wonderfully with fresh fruit or whipped cream.
