This is the best creme brulee recipe I have ever come across. It's fairly simple to make. Ingredients:
4 ounce ghirardelli white chocolate baking bar (chopped into small pieces |
4 large egg yolks, at room temperature |
1/3 cup sugar plus additional for carmelizing |
2 cup whipping cream |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 300°F.
2. In medium bowl, whisk egg yolks with sugar until smooth.
3. In 2-quart saucepan, bring whipping cream to a simmer over medium-high heat.
4. Add white chocolate to simmering whipping cream.
5. Turn off heat and whisk until white chocolate is melted.
6. Add white chocolate mixture to egg yolk mixture whisking continuously to prevent eggs from scrambling.
7. Whisk until smooth.
8. Add vanilla.
9. Pour into four ramekins or custard cups.
10. Place cups in 13 x 9 baking pan or broiler pan.
11. Add enough water so cups sit in 1 to 1 1/2 inch of water.
12. Bake until set, about 45 minutes
13. Remove from oven and sprinkle additional sugar (however much you like here, I use a lot to make the whole top carmelized and crunchy good!)
14. Broil for another 4-5 min or until desired level of browness (a deep golden brown is optimal)
15. Can be served warm, at room temperature, or refrigerate overnight.
