Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Place milk and cream in a 4-cup measure. Cook, uncovered, at 100 percent power in a high-power oven with a carousel for 2 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    While milk is cooking, whisk together eggs and sugar in a medium bowl. Combine cocoa and coffee in a small bowl.

  3. Step 3

    Remove milk from oven and pour into egg mixture, whisking constantly. Whisk in Irish Cream.

  4. Step 4

    Stir a scant tablespoon of the custard mixture into the cocoa and coffee to form a smooth paste. Scrape the cocoa mixture back into the custard and whisk until well combined.

  5. Step 5

    Pour into ½-cup ramekins and skim any foam from the top of each. Place cups, evenly spaced, around the carousel. Cook, uncovered, at 50 percent power for 6 minutes. Custard will still be partly liquid.

  6. Step 6

    Remove from oven. Let stand, covered with a towel, for 15 minutes. Refrigerate until firm and well chilled.
