Ingredients
- 5 large egg yolks
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar plus extra for topping
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
- Pour the heavy cream into a saucepan and heat over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Do not boil. Once you see bubbles around the edges, remove from heat and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and silky.
- Slowly pour the warmed cream into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from curdling.
- Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a clean bowl to remove any lumps or cooked egg bits.
- Divide the custard evenly among four 6-ounce oven-safe ramekins.
- Place the filled ramekins into a deep baking dish. Carefully pour boiling water into the dish, filling it about one-third of the way up the sides of the ramekins. This helps the custard cook gently and evenly.
- Bake the crème brûlées for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are slightly set but the centers still jiggle when gently shaken.
- Remove the ramekins from the water bath and allow the custards to cool to room temperature. Once cool, transfer them to the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours.
- When ready to serve, sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of sugar over the top of each creme brulee. Using a kitchen torch, melt and caramelize the sugar by moving the flame in a slow, circular motion until you achieve a golden, glass-like crust.
- Allow the caramelized tops to cool for a minute or two to harden before cracking into them. Serve and enjoy!
