Recipe - Lime Crepe Cups With Blackberry Sauce

Warm Dessert Crepes (see
recipe)
Vegetable cooking spray
1 Egg yolk
6 tablespoon Sugar, divided
1 tablespoon Cornstarch
One half cup Skim milk
One half teaspoon Grated lime rind
4 teaspoon Fresh lime juice
3 Egg whites
1/8 teaspoon Cream of tartar
Blackberry Sauce
2 teaspoon Powdered sugar

Press each warm crepe into a 6ounce custard cup (or muffin cup) coated
with vegetable cooking spray. Place another custard cup inside each crepe
to form tulipshaped cups; let cool completely.

Place egg yolk in a small bowl; lightly beat with a wire whisk. Combine 3
tablespoons sugar and cornstarch in a small saucepan; stir well.

Gradually add milk, stirring with a wire whisk until blended. Bring to a
boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook 1 minute, stirring
constantly. Remove from heat.

Gradually stir about onefourth of the hot milk mixture into egg yolk; add
to remaining milk mixture, stirring constantly. Cook 1 minute or until
thickened, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in lime rind and
lime juice.

Beat egg whites (at room temperature) and cream of tartar at high speed of
an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining 3
tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks form.
Gently stir onefourth of egg white mixture into custard. Gently fold in
remaining egg white mixture.

Place crepefilled custard cups on a baking sheet; remove top custard cups.
Divide custard mixture evenly among crepe cups. Bake at 375 degrees for 15
minutes or until puffed and golden. Remove crepes from custard cups. Spoon
about 2 tablespoons Blackberry Sauce onto each of 6 dessert plates. Place 1
filled crepe on top of sauce, and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Yield: 6
servings.
