2. Strain and let cool.

Teresa, yes, a pan inside another pan with water serves as a double boiler. As for temperature, that's probably a safe one. Thanks for asking.

Can I get more direction on "bake for an hour in a double boiler"? Sorry, but I don't know what that means. Can I put it in a pan of water and bake it in the oven on 350 instead?
