brown color. Remove from the heat and slowly pour the butter into the
egg mixture, stirring continuously. Add vanilla extract. Pour the
mixture over the berries. Preheat oven to 350F. Arrange a rack in the
middle of the oven. Place the dish in the oven for 45 minutes. The

not runny. Let cool completely before serving. To serve, invert the
charlotte onto a plate and accompany with whipped cream. This
charlotte can be frozen for up to 4 months.
