When it is all incorporated, pour it into a baking pan (for individual servings use individual custard cups) Place the pan in a pan of warm water and bake at 300-325 degs for about an hour.
Testing custard is abit tricky. after about an hour slip a knife between the edge of the custard and the pan. It should be clean. The center should still be soft. It will continue to cook for a bit after you take it out. If you suspect that the center is done too much put the pan in a pan of cold/ice water to stop the cooking process. You can use the knife test to see if it is too doine in the middle.
