ABOUT 3 HOURS BEFORE SERVING OR EARLY IN DAY: 1. Preheat oven to 350'F. Grease eight 8-oz custard cups.

Immediately pour into custard cups.

3. In large bowl, with wire whisk or fork, beat eggs, egg whites, and ½ C sugar until well blended. Beat in milk and vanilla extract.

Pour custard mixture into custard cups. If you like, skim any foam from top of custard.

4. Place custard cups in 17" by 11½" roasting pan; fill pan with boiling water to come halfway up sides of custard cups. Bake 30 minutes or until center of custard is just set. Remove cups from water in baking pan; refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours.
