Ingredients
1 quart heavy cream
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped
1 cup vanilla sugar, divided
6 large egg yolks
2 quarts hot water
Flavors
2 single serving packets of Nescafe Tasters Choice Instant Coffee
3 table spoons of The Perfect Puree Of Napa Valley – Passion Fruit Gourmet Concentrate
Half Package of Chaokoh Coconut Milk Powder
1 Package of Land Lakes Cocoa Hot Cocoa Mix
Directions
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
Place the cream, vanilla bean and its pulp into a saucepan set over medium-high heat until it comes to a boil. Next remove it from the heat and cover it and let sit for about 15 minutes. After its sit remove the vanilla bean and set it aside for another use.
Next take out medium size bowl and whisk together 1/2 cup sugar and the egg yolks until well blended (it will start to lighten in color once ready). Now take the cream and add a little at a time to the mixture stirring continually. Now divide the mixture into 4 equal parts (in different bowls) and add the flavor components (one to each bowl) listed above. Next pour the liquid into 12 (4-ounce) ramekins (if you have different size ramekins thats ok you will just have fewer creme brulees). Place the ramekins into a large cake pan or roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake just until the creme brulee is set, but still trembling in the center, approximately 40 to 45 minutes. Remove the ramekins from the pan and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Now for the fun part… Remove the creme brulee from the refrigerator for at least 15-30 minutes prior to browning the sugar on top.
Divide the remaining 1/2 cup vanilla sugar equally among the 12 remekins and spread evenly on top.
Using a torch, melt the sugar and form a crispy top.
Allow the creme brulee to sit for at least 5 minutes before serving.
Enjoy! for additional fun you can put the creme brulee flavors into chinese spoons, add sugar, and then torch them for parties or smaller treats. You can also serve them with a fresh fruit topping. This is one of Private Chef Ryan Covert’s specialties and always a hit for guests and locals alike.
Happen to be trying to find this and learned much more than anticipated in this article. Thanks.
You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be actually something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I’m looking forward for your next post, I’ll try to get the hang of it!
