Chocolate Crème Brûlée

Cinnamon Cookie Crumble

Vanilla Ice Cream

Method

Chocolate Crème Brûlée

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chocolate Mixture

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine heavy cream and chopped chocolate. Stir until the chocolate melts and the mixture is smooth.

  2. 2

    Whisk Egg Yolks

    In a bowl, whisk together egg yolks, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until the mixture is pale.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Slowly pour the warm chocolate mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking continuously to prevent curdling.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Pour the chocolate custard into ramekins. Place the ramekins in a baking dish and fill the dish with hot water until halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake for 30-35 minutes until just set.

  5. 5

    Cool

    Remove from the oven and let them cool. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

  1. 6

    In a bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, melted butter, and a pinch of salt. Mix until crumbly.

  2. 7

    Spread the mixture on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. Let cool.
