Want a French dessert to go along with a French dinner? Well, Crème Brûlée is a wonderful way to end any meal, whether it's French or not!
Ingredients:
Heavy Cream (2 cups)
Five eggs (You will only use the yolks)
1\2 Cup of Sugar
1 Tablespoon of Vanilla extract
1\2 Cup of light brown sugar
Recipe:
First, preheat the oven to 275 degrees.
Next, put the cream, sugar, eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl together and whisk them until the mixture becomes creamy.
Now, pour this mixture into ceramic dishes that are heat resistant. Fill a pan with hot water and place all the dishes inside the pan with water (The water should only be about half way up the side of the ceramic dish, no higher.) Place the pan with all of the ceramic dishes in the oven for about 45 minutes, when a knife can be stuck inside it and pulled out clean it is finished. When in over, check constantly.
When they are done, take it out of the oven and take each ceramic dish out of the pan. Allow them to cool for about fifteen minutes.
Leave them in the refrigerator overnight.
Sprinkle the light brown sugar on the top of each, not too much, just enough to dust the top. Using a kitchen torch, torch it! This will carmalize the brown sugar which gives it the warm and hard top of the dessert, while the inside is cool and creamy.
Have fun with this one!
