Time 3h15m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 tablespoons white sugar
1 cup heavy cream
3 egg yolks
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons white sugar, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Whisk 3 tablespoons sugar and cream in a microwave-safe bowl until well combined; heat the mixture in microwave until warm, 1 to 2 minutes, and whisk again to dissolve sugar. Whisk in egg yolks and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Pour cream mixture into 2 ramekins. Set ramekins into a roasting pan and pour in enough hot water to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until creme desserts are set but still slightly jiggly when shaken, about 50 minutes. Remove ramekins from hot water and chill in refrigerator until cold, at least 2 hours.
  • Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sugar evenly over the top of each dessert. Use a kitchen torch to lightly toast and melt the sugar topping until brown and bubbly, about 30 seconds. Let the sugar topping cool before serving. To serve, use a spoon to crack the crisp sugar open to reveal the creamy dessert underneath.

AMARETTO CRèME BRûLéE



Amaretto Crème Brûlée image

An amaretto crème brûlée with eggs, cream, sugar, and almond extract. Garnish this easy dessert with a sprig of mint.

Provided by Diana Rattray

Categories     Dessert

Time 4h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups heavy whipping cream (1 pint)
2 tablespoons amaretto liqueur
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
4 large egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar (plus 4 to 6 tablespoons for topping)
Optional: sliced almonds (lightly toasted)
Optional: fresh mint

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients. Preheat oven to 350 F.
  • In a saucepan, bring cream, amaretto, and almond extract to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, whisk egg yolks with 1/2 cup granulated sugar. Slowly whisk the hot cream into the egg yolk mixture until well blended, gradually adding the hot liquid so the eggs don't cook.
  • Place 6 to 8 shallow individual 6- to 8-ounce baking dishes in a large baking or roasting pan.
  • Pour cream mixture into the baking dishes. Pour boiling water into the baking dish to about halfway up the small baking dishes.
  • Carefully place the pan in the oven. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the centers barely move. You may have to adjust the baking time, depending on the size/depth of the baking dishes.
  • Cool the crème brûlée, then chill for about 4 to 6 hours or overnight.
  • Sprinkle each crème brûlée with 2 to 3 teaspoons of sugar.
  • Carefully torch to melt the sugar, moving and taking care not to burn. Or, place under the broiler, turning and watching very closely, until sugar turns a darker brown, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. A cooking torch is good to have if you make this often. You have much more control on melting the sugar, which forms the famous crust.
  • Top each crème brûlée with a sprig of mint and sliced toasted almonds if desired.

1 quart heavy cream
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped
1 cup vanilla sugar, divided
6 large egg yolks
2 quarts hot water

CRèME BRûLéE



Crème Brûlée image

Julia Child believed that every woman should own a blowtorch. If you've lucky enough to have one, it will come in handy for this easy crème brulee recipe. And, if not, the broiler is a great stand-in for a handy-dandy blowtorch.

Provided by Betty Crocker Kitchens

Categories     Dessert

Time 7h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 egg yolks
2 cups whipping cream
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
Boiling water
8 teaspoons granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. In 13x9-inch pan, place 4 (6-oz) ceramic ramekins. In small bowl, slightly beat egg yolks with wire whisk. In large bowl, stir whipping cream, 1/3 cup granulated sugar and the vanilla until well mixed. Add egg yolks; beat with wire whisk until evenly colored and well blended. Pour cream mixture evenly into ramekins.
  • Carefully place pan with ramekins in oven. Pour enough boiling water into pan, being careful not to splash water into ramekins, until water covers two-thirds of the height of the ramekins.
  • Bake 30 to 40 minutes or until top is light golden brown and sides are set (centers will be jiggly).
  • Using tongs or grasping tops of ramekins with pot holder, carefully transfer ramekins to cooling rack. Cool to room temperature, about 2 hours. Cover tightly with plastic wrap; refrigerate until chilled, at least 4 hours but no longer than 48 hours.
  • Uncover ramekins; gently blot any liquid from tops of custards with paper towel. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons granulated sugar over each chilled custard. Holding kitchen torch 3 to 4 inches from custard, caramelize sugar on each custard by heating with torch about 2 minutes, moving flame continuously over sugar in circular motion, until sugar is melted and light golden brown. (To caramelize sugar in the broiler, see Broiler Directions below.) Serve immediately, or refrigerate up to 8 hours before serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients, especially the vanilla and amaretto. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of the crème brûlée.
  • Make sure the cream is very cold before you start cooking it. This will help the custard to set properly.
  • Cook the custard slowly and gently, stirring constantly. Do not let it boil, or it will curdle.
  • When the custard is finished cooking, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps.
  • Let the custard cool completely before you chill it. This will help to prevent it from cracking.
  • When you are ready to serve the crème brûlée, sprinkle the tops with sugar and caramelize it with a kitchen torch. Be careful not to burn the sugar.

Conclusion:

Crème brûlée is a classic French dessert that is both delicious and elegant. With its creamy custard filling and caramelized sugar topping, it is sure to impress your guests. This recipe for basic crème brûlée with amaretto is a great way to enjoy this classic dessert with a twist. The amaretto adds a subtle almond flavor that pairs perfectly with the vanilla custard.
