Step 6 of 10

Distribute the mixture into small ramekins.

Place the ramekins in a larger container.

Step 8 of 10

Carefully fill with hot water up to half the height of the small forms. Place in an oven preheated to 180 degrees. Bake for 40–45 minutes. Check for doneness by gently shaking the form: the texture should be like jelly. Completely cool the finished dish.
