Dissolve sugar
and coconut cream in a pan over simmering water.
Stir beaten eggs into coconut
cream. Cook until custard has thickened enough
to coat the back of the spoon, about 8 minutes.
Remove from heat. Stir in butter.
Brush six 1/2 cup capacity
individual ramekin dishes with melted butter.
Pour custard into prepared dishes.
Place ramekins in a baking dish
with enough warm water to come about halfway up
sides of dishes. Bake in oven at 180 oC
for about 30 minutes.
Remove from oven and place
custards under hot grill to brown tops.
Serve warm or cold with whipped
cream or thick coconut cream and slices of
tropical fruit.
