Leche Asada (Baked Milk Custard)

Ingredients
6 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups milk
Garnish with ground cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F
2. Crack 6 eggs into a large mixing bowl.
3. Add sugar and milk and whisk to combine.
4. Pour through strainer (to remove larger egg residues) into individual ramekins or one 1 1/2 quart ramekin. 
5. Bake for 30-40 minutes in the small ramekins or for 1 hour in the large. (Setting them in a water bath will make them creamier).
6. Chill for about an hour.
7. Sprinkle with a dash of cinnamon (if desired) and serve.

Notes: This is a simple but tasty dessert. Brittany has done water baths for custards before but I had never actually made a custard before, so I learned something new making this. (This is how I did it: set ramekin into larger baking dish. Bring some water to a boil and pour into larger baking dish until it is approximately level with the custard in the ramekin.)
