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 shopping list
- 4 large egg yolks, at room temperature shopping list
- 1/3 cup sugar plus additional for carmelizing shopping list
- 2 cup whipping cream shopping list
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 300°F.
- In medium bowl, whisk egg yolks with sugar until smooth.
- In 2-quart saucepan, bring whipping cream to a simmer over medium-high heat.
- Add white chocolate to simmering whipping cream.
- Turn off heat and whisk until white chocolate is melted.
- Add white chocolate mixture to egg yolk mixture whisking continuously to prevent eggs from scrambling.
- Whisk until smooth.
- Add vanilla.
- Pour into four ramekins or custard cups.
- Place cups in 13" x 9" baking pan or broiler pan.
- Add enough water so cups sit in 1 to 1 1/2 inch of water.
- Bake until set, about 45 minutes
- 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!)
- Broil for another 4-5 min or until desired level of browness (a deep golden brown is optimal)
- Can be served warm, at room temperature, or refrigerate overnight.

I'm a fan of white chocolate AND of crème brûlée, so this is right up my alley. (As Dandelion said above, I caramelized the custards.)
Thanks for posting it, TheNewMrsStreetman :)
