    Categories: Fruits, Booze, Desserts
    Yield: 4 servings

    2 lg Eggs; separated
    2 lg Egg yolks
    1/2 c Armagnac
    1/2 ts Kosher salt
    1/4 ts Vanilla extract
    4 Italian plums' halved;
    - pitted
    Confectioners’ sugar; for
    - dusting

    In a small saucepan, whisk 4 tablespoons granulated
    sugar with the 4 egg yolks and then stir in the Armagnac
    and salt. Place over medium heat, and cook, stirring
    constantly, until the custard is thickened, about 8
    minutes. Remove the custard from the heat and stir in
    the vanilla.

    In a large bowl, whisk the 2 egg whites with the
    remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar until they hold
    soft peaks. Scrape the whites into the custard and fold
    until evenly combined.

    Heat the broiler. In an 8" round baking dish, arrange
    the plums cut side up and broil until heated through and
    beginning to brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the
    dish from the broiler, spoon the custard over and around
    the plum halves, and return to the broiler until the
    custard turns golden brown, about 2 minutes.

    Dust the plums and custard with confectioners’ sugar and
    serve hot right from the dish.
