So when we call pain a problem, we claim we do not deserve it. We are even prepared to scuttle God to maintain our own innocence. We will say that God is not able to do what He would like, or He would never permit persons such as ourselves to suffer. That puffs up our egos and soothes our griefs at the same time. “How could God do this to me?” is at once an admission of pain and a soporific for it. It reduces our personal grief by eradicating the deity. Drastic medicine, indeed, that only a human ego, run wild, could possibly imagine.

500	ml	Double cream; (17fl oz)
5	tb	Extra strong black coffee
6		Egg yolks
2	dr	Vanilla essence; (2 to 3)
3	tb	Caster sugar
		Demerera sugar for sprinkling

INSTRUCTIONS

Pre-heat the oven to 160&deg;C/325&deg;F/gas mark 3.
Place the cream and coffee in a large bowl and beat in the egg yolks,
vanilla essence and caster sugar. Pour into 4 x 10cm (4 inch) ramekin
dishes. Place the ramekins in a roasting tin lined with newspaper. Pour
enough hot water into the tin to come halfway up the sides of the ramekin
dishes. Cook in the oven for one hour until just set. Allow to cool, then
chill for at least 4 hours.
Pre-heat the grill to hot. Sprinkle an even layer of demerera sugar about
2mm (1/8 inch) thick over the custards. Place under the grill for 3-5
minutes until the sugar melts and caramelises. Leave to cool a little so
the caramel sets before serving.
