Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter , melted
  • 5 tablespoons white sugar , divided
  • 5 teaspoons butter
  • 5 teaspoons all-purpose flour
  • 0.25 cups cold milk
  • 1 tablespoon brandy-based orange liqueur , such as Grand Marnier®
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated orange zest
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 0.13 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 large egg whites

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Brush the insides of two (8-ounce) ramekins with 1 tablespoon melted butter; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar. Place on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.

  2. 2

    Melt 5 teaspoons butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; cook and stir flour in hot butter until golden brown and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Pour in milk and cook, stirring continuously, until smooth and thick, 3 to 4 minutes. Pour into a large bowl. Stir in orange liqueur and zest. Add egg yolks and vanilla; mix until smooth.

  3. 3

    Whisk egg whites in a second large bowl until frothy. Slowly add 2 tablespoons sugar and whisk until combined. Add remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and continue to whisk until meringue holds its shape and is thick but not stiff.

  4. 4

    Fold 1/2 of the meringue into egg yolk mixture until combined. Gently fold in remaining meringue until well mixed. Transfer to the prepared ramekins, leaving 1/4-inch space at the top.

  5. 5

    Bake in the preheated oven until risen and browned, about 16 minutes.
