Creme Brulew
Makes 4 Servings
Ingredients:
5 egg yolks
½ cup plus 2 tbs sugar, divided
2 cups whipping cream
1 tbs pure vanilla extract
Milk chocolate chips
½ cup plus 2 tbs sugar, divided
2 cups whipping cream
1 tbs pure vanilla extract
Milk chocolate chips
Directions:
Preheat oven to 300°F. In large bowl, whisk egg yolks and ½ cup of the sugar. In small heavy saucepan, heat cream to simmering over low heat. Add to yolk mixture, whisking constantly. Add vanilla, whisk to blend and set aside.
Divide chocolate chips among 4 ¾ cup custard dishes so there is a single, even layer in each dish. Ladle cream mixture over chocolate.
Place the dishes in a baking pan and add enough water to the pan to come halfway up the sides of the dishes. Bake until just set in the center, about 1 hour. Remove dishes from the pan and cool. Cover and chill overnight.
When ready to serve, sprinkle the ½ tbs of sugar evenly on top of the 4 dishes. Broil (or use a torch), watching carefully, until sugar melts and browns slightly, about 2 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before serving.
