Instructions: Prepare the Crema Catalana.

Core the apples, being careful not to cut through the bottoms. Pare a one-inch strip from around the top of each.

Lightly butter a baking dish and arrange apples in dish. Bring 1/2 cup of water to a boil, then stir in half the sugar. Pour mixture over apples. Bake uncovered in a 350 degree oven, basting occasionally, for 30 to 40 minutes, or until apples are tender and the skin begins to crack. Remove the apples from the oven and allow them to cool for about 10 minutes, continuing to baste occasionally.

Fill each apple with Crema Catalana (some may be left over). Sprinkle the top of each with remaining sugar and place under a hot broiler until the sugar is dark brown. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
