Little Scottish Butterscotch Pots

Ingredients (serves 9)

 

  • 2 x 200g can sweetened condensed milk

  • 12 x egg yolks

  • 750 mls double cream

Method:

 

  • Preheat oven at 150C/gas mark 2

  • Remove labels from condensed milk tins and place in a pot, cover with water, place on a heat and bring to the boil.

  • Turn heat down slightly to tick over gently and at times top water level up to ensure cans covered in water.

  • Leave them cooking for 2 hours. (This turns the condensed milk into a toffee colour).

  • Cool tins set aside until required. When needed open with a tin opener and scrape out into a bowl.

  • Stir in the egg yolks

  • Gradually stir in the double cream until you have a smooth mixture

  • Strain into a jug and pour into ramikins

  • Place them in a deep tray and pour in boiling water to a bain marie

  • Slide into the middle of the oven and cook for 20-25 minutes until just set but still a little wobbly.
