  • I've made individual cheesecakes in those ramekins before. They're just the right size.
    I like cooking with wine......sometimes I even put it in the food!

    I make potted cheese in mine - if you seal it with butter it lasts for ages in the fridge. I also make puddings in them, our favourite at the moment is a few frozen raspberries in the bottom, topped with greek yogurt and some brown sugar. If you leave them in the fridge for a while the raspberries melt and go all 'saucy' and brown sugar melts and goes all fudgy ... yum :)

    They're also really handy for filling with bicarb and putting in pongy places.

    Went to a party lest night and had individual tiramisu, and individual berry fruit in jelly. They looked stunning, and tasted divine.

    I do individual pots of Eton Mess in mine - absolutely delish (even if I do say so myself :D)

    I use my ramekin set for serving
    yogurt sprinkled with brown sugar or drizzled with honey
    rice pud/sago pud with jam or a piece of chocolate inside
    single scoops of icecream -makes it last longer

    In fact I really just use them as serving dishes as a way of controlling portion size. If you have big pudding bowls you tend to fill them up.

    I do chocolate truffle torte in mine (Delia Christmas countdown book) - it is heaven! I do it with a raspberry couli. Bit late for today but maybe you could try them another time.

    I've made little coconut creams in mine.

    serves 5-6

    4 eggs
    50g caster sugar
    250ml coconut milk
    1 tsp vanilla extract

    Whisk eggs and sugar in a bowl until smooth. Gradually add coconut milk and vanilla. Whisk well.
    Strain the mixture then pour into ramekins. Cover with cling film.

    You could cook them in a bain marie in the oven but I do mine in the slowcooker. Pour enough boiling water into slowcooker to come 1/2 way up the dishes and cook on high for about 3 hours. The custard should be lightly set and a skewer should come out clean

    LOL that's what I've done! :rotfl: :rotfl:

    But howabout little choc souffles, or savoury souffles for a starter dish?
