Creme Brulee
Time for a classic way to indulge your sweet tooth! Creme Brulee is one of my all time favorites and its a classic that you can use for a dinner party or just for an at home date night with your significant other. It’s easy to execute but make sure you pay attention to detail!
Vanilla Creme Brulee
The Ingredients
1 Quart of Heavy Cream
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup egg yolks
1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract
Git-R-Done
Step 1: Bring Cream and half a cup of the sugar to a boil.
Step 2: Mix the other half cup of sugar with the yolks and vanilla extract.
Step 3: Slowly add the hot cream to the egg yolk mixture while constantly whisking the yolks.
Step 4: Pre-heat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
Step 5: Pour the Creme Brulee base into ceramic baking dishes.
Step 6: Bake in a water bath for 45 minutes.
Step 7: After 45 minutes gently shake the brulees. If they jiggle like jello remove from the water bath and place them in the refrigerator to cool down. If they aren’t done check them every 10 minutes.
Step 8: Now that you’re ready to serve them sprinkle sugar in the raw and cover the brulee. Remove any excess.
Step 9: Caramelize the sugar with a propane torch.
Step 10: Enjoy it!
Pro Tip: You can get a propane torch at Home Depot or Lowes
Pro Tip 2: Be careful when you’re boiling the cream because it will boil over all over the stove!
Cheers!
