Categories     dessert

Time 2h

Yield 5 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 extra-large egg
4 extra-large egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar, plus 1 tablespoon for each serving
3 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon orange liqueur (recommended: Grand Marnier)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the egg, egg yolks, and 1/2 cup of the sugar together on low speed until just combined. Meanwhile, scald the cream in a small saucepan until it's very hot to the touch but not boiled. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the cream to the eggs. Add the vanilla and orange liqueur and pour into 6 to 8-ounce ramekins until almost full.
  • Place the ramekins in a baking pan and carefully pour boiling water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the custards are set when gently shaken. Remove the custards from the water bath, cool to room temperature, and refrigerate until firm.
  • To serve, spread 1 tablespoon of sugar evenly on the top of each ramekin and heat with a kitchen blowtorch until the sugar carmelizes evenly. Allow to sit at room temperature for a minute until the caramelized sugar hardens.

GRAND MARNIER CREME BRULEE



GRAND MARNIER CREME BRULEE image

Categories     Orange

Yield 5 ramekins

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 ounces milk
5 ounce whipping cream
1 vanilla bean
Zest of 1 orange
3/4 ounce Grand Marnier
1 1/2 ounce sugar
5 egg yolks
5 ounces brown sugar

Steps:

  • Finely grate the orange zest and let it macerate in the Grand Marnier for an hour. Bring the milk and cream to a boil. Add the vanilla bean, the Grand Marnier-macerated orange zest mixture, and the sugar and let infuse for an hour. Strain to remove the vanilla bean and the orange zest. Add the egg yolks, mixing gently so that the mixture does not froth. Pour into ramekins and cook in the oven following two possible methods: At 230 F in a traditional oven (heated from both top and bottom) in a double boiler for approximately 50 minutes; or at 175 F in a convection or forced convection oven without the double boiler (more difficult) for approximately 30 minutes. The creme brulee is cooked when it is set in the middle and "trembles" when the ramekin is tapped. Remove the crèmes brulees from the oven and allow to cool. Place them in the refrigerator. Just before serving, sprinkle with a thin layer of brown sugar and caramelize with a blowtorch or under the broiler (more difficult). If the custard cooks too quickly it will be slightly granular, not creamy as it should be. If moisture has formed on the surface of the creme brulee when it is taken from the refrigerator, soak it up with some paper towels before sprinkling with sugar.

CHOCOLATE AND GRAND MARNIER CREME BRULéE



Chocolate and Grand Marnier Creme Brulée image

An intensely flavoured creme brulée combining two favourites: chocolate, and Grand Marnier. Both flavours are strong, but this can easily be fixed by using less for those who prefer a more mild flavour. Time setting in fridge NOT included.

Provided by Ick2739

Categories     Dessert

Time 55m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 egg yolks
1 cup icing sugar
2 cups whipping cream
3 -4 ounces semisweet chocolate
1 -2 tablespoon Grand Marnier
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 tablespoons icing sugar (for topping)

Steps:

  • Preheat the Oven to 325ºF.
  • Whisk together egg yolks and 1 cup icing sugar until the mixture thickens and is a pale yellow.
  • Simmer the cream over low heat, melting the chocolate in it.
  • Add vanilla extract and Grand Marnier to cream and remove from heat.
  • Slowly add the cream to the egg mixture, whisking continually to prevent curdling.
  • Divide mixture between four ramekins.
  • Place ramekins in a cake pan and fill with water about halfway up the outside of the ramekins. Bake until edges begin to set, about 40 minutes.
  • Cool at room temperature, and then refridgerate for at least two hours.
  • Before serving, turn on the broiler and allow it to heat up.
  • Sprinkle the remaining 4 tablespoons of icing sugar over the tops of the creme brulées covering them evenly.
  • Broil until the sugar caremelizes, be careful not to let it burn. It should be cool under the carmelized sugar (the ramekin won't be though!).

Tips:

  • Make sure the custard base is thick and creamy before pouring it into the ramekins. This will help to prevent curdling.
  • Don't overcook the crème brûlée. The custard should be set but still slightly wobbly in the center.
  • Use a kitchen torch that generates a lot of heat to caramelize the sugar quickly.
  • Don't let the sugar burn. This will ruin the flavor of the crème brûlée.
  • Serve the crème brûlée immediately after caramelizing the sugar so that the sugar crust is still crisp.

Conclusion:

Grand Marnier crème brûlée is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its smooth and creamy custard base, caramelized sugar crust, and rich Grand Marnier flavor, it is sure to impress your guests. So next time you're looking for a special dessert to make, give Grand Marnier crème brûlée a try.
