Steps, continued

  1. Pour the egg mixture over the filling, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
  2. Bake until the egg cups are puffed and the centers are set, not wet or jiggly. A thermometer in the center of one should read 160°F (71°C).
  3. Let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then run a butter knife around each cup and lift them out.
  4. Cook to 160°F inside (check with a thermometer).
