Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Mix 1 tablespoon water into 1/4 cup sugar in a heavy saucepan over medium heat until sugar is completely moistened. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until the sugar and water form a golden brown syrup, about 5 minutes. Do not stir. Remove from heat and let boiling subside. Carefully stir 1 tablespoon hot water into caramel syrup.

  3. Whisk milk and 5 tablespoons sugar together in a saucepan over low heat, heat just until warmed and sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat and whisk eggs into milk mixture. Pour caramel syrup into an 8x8-inch baking dish. Pour egg-milk mixture over syrup. Place pan into a larger baking dish and pour enough water into outer pan to reach about 1/2 inch up the sides of the inner pan.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until custard has set, about 45 minutes. Let cool for about 10 minutes, chill in refrigerator before serving.
