Creme Brulee
Yield: Serves 4
Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 45 mins
Creamy baked custard is topped with a layer of crisp caramelized sugar in this tasty dessert.
Ingredients:
2 Cups Heavy Cream
1/2 Cup Sugar
1 Vanilla Bean, Split Lengthwise
5 Large Egg Yolks
Topping:
12 Teaspoons Sugar
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
Bring the cream to a boil with the vanilla bean, then remove from the heat and let cool for 10 minutes.
In a bowl, beat together the egg yolks and sugar, and slowly begin to add some of the cream mixture to the bowl, mixing well.
Continue until all the cream has been combined with the egg mixture.
Pour this mixture through a fine strainer, and into 4 individual ramekin dishes placed in a baking dish large enough to hold them.
Add enough water into the baking dish to come up halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
Bake for about 35 minutes, or until almost firm.
Cool to room temperature, and then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Sprinkle the topping sugar on top of each ramekin, and either broil or use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar.
Serve.
