#4 : place remakins into a baking pan filled with hot water (half way up the remakins)

#5 : place baking pan into oven for 45mins-1hour (check every 10-15mins after 45mins of cooking), use a trusted needle or a knife, stick in into the mix. it should not stick to the knife or needle to indicate its ready.

#6 : remove remakins and set them on counter to allow cooling for 15mins.

#7 : store in fridge overnight!! *the next day wake up with a smile remembering you've got a treat for yourself, get your lazy ass outta bed and walk to the fridge*

#8 : sprinkle the brown sugar evenly on top and torch it till sugar melts creating a caramel crust on top.

wallah! worth getting outta bed for?
