Add 1 cup of heavy cream, a tiny pinch of salt, and 1 tablespoon of coffee to the pan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then remove from heat and let it steep.
In a separate bowl, mix 2 egg yolks and 1/4 cup of sugar quickly to avoid curdling.
Filter the cream and coffee mixture, then whisk in the egg yolk and sugar mixture. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla bean paste.
Place cranberries in ramekins lined with a napkin to prevent marks. Fill the ramekins with the custard mixture.
Place the ramekins in a baking dish filled with hot water. Bake at 325°F for 25 minutes or until the custard wobbles in the middle.
Chill the custards overnight. Top with sugar and torch until caramelized. Alternatively, caramelize sugar in a saucepan with water and pour over the custards.
