Step 1
In a small saucepan, melt 1/4 cup sugar over medium heat until amber, about 5 minutes. Quickly pour into two ramekins, tilting to coat bottoms.
Step 2
In a bowl, whisk 2 eggs with remaining 1/4 cup sugar and 1 tsp vanilla until smooth. Gradually whisk in 1.5 cups milk.
Step 3
Pour custard over caramel in ramekins. Place in a baking dish with hot water halfway up sides. Bake at 350°F until set but jiggly, 25-30 minutes.
Step 4
Cool slightly, then run a knife around edges and invert onto plates. Garnish with 2 mint leaves.
