Crème Brûlée


Serves: 4

Ingredients

Directions:

1. Beat egg yolks in medium bowl with electric mixer on high speed about 3 minutes or until thick and lemon colored. Gradually beat in granulated sugar.

2. Heat whipping cream in 2-quart saucepan over medium heat just until hot.

3. Gradually stir at least half of the hot cream into egg yolk mixture, then stir back into hot cream in saucepan. Cook over low heat 5 to 8 minutes, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens (do not boil). Stir in vanilla.

4. Pour custard into four 6-ounce ceramic ramekins* or ungreased ceramic pie plate, 9 X 1 1/4 inches.* Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours but no longer than 24 hours. Custard must be completely chilled before broiling with brown sugar on top to keep custard from overheating.

5. Set oven control to broil. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over custard. Broil with tops about 5 inches from heat about 3 minutes or until sugar is melted and forms a glaze. Serve immediately (mixture will be runny), or refrigerate 1 to 2 hours or until slightly firm. Store covered in refrigerator.

*Do not use glass custard cups or glass pie plates they cannot withstand the heat from broiling and may break.
