Looking for a classic dessert that’s sure to impress? Crème Brûlée Ingredients: - 2 cups heavy cream - 1 vanilla bean (or 1 tsp vanilla extract) - 5 large egg yolks - 1/2 cup granulated sugar - 1/4 cup brown sugar (for topping) Preparation Steps: 1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). 2. In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream and the vanilla bean (split and scraped) over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. 3. In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and granulated sugar until well combined and slightly pale. 4. Slowly pour the warm cream mixture into the egg mixture, whisking continuously to prevent curdling. 5. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any solids. 6. Divide the custard into ramekins and place them in a deep baking dish. 7. Fill the baking dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins. 8. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is slightly jiggly. 9. Remove from the oven and let them cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 2 hours. 10. Just before serving, sprinkle an even layer of brown sugar over each custard. 11. Caramelize the sugar using a kitchen torch until golden and bubbly.
