Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 large egg yolks
7 tablespoons sugar
2 1/4 cups whipping cream
2 tablespoons Grand Marnier or other orange liqueur
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 tablespoons (packed) golden brown sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Whisk yolks and 7 tablespoons sugar in medium bowl until thick and pale yellow, about 2 minutes. Bring cream to simmer in heavy small saucepan. Gradually whisk hot cream into yolk mixture. Whisk in Grand Marnier and vanilla; divide custard among six 3/4-cup custard cups. Arrange cups in 13x9x2-inch metal pan. Pour enough hot water into pan to come halfway up sides of cups. Bake custards until gently set in center, about 25 minutes. Remove cups from water and refrigerate uncovered until cold, at least 3 hours. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and keep chilled.)
  • Preheat broiler. Place custards on baking sheet. Sprinkle 1/2 tablespoon brown sugar onto each. Broil until sugar starts to bubble and color, turning sheet often to prevent burning, about 2 minutes. Chill until topping is hard and brittle, at least 1 hour and up to 6 hours.

I'm not a huge fan of Grand Marnier, but I thought I would give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The orange flavor was not overpowering, and the crème brûlée was delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

This crème brûlée was a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall it was a good recipe. I think I would try using less sugar next time.

I was a bit skeptical about adding Grand Marnier to crème brûlée, but I'm so glad I did! It added a lovely orange flavor that really brightened up the dish. I also appreciated that the recipe was relatively simple to follow.

I've made crème brûlée many times before, but this Grand Marnier version is by far my favorite. The orange liqueur adds a subtle but noticeable depth of flavor that takes this classic dessert to the next level.

This crème brûlée was a hit at my dinner party! The Grand Marnier added a lovely citrus flavor that perfectly complemented the creamy custard. The torched sugar topping was the perfect finishing touch, adding a delightful crunch and caramelized flavo
