INGREDIENTS

  • Base Ingredients

    • 🍫 ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
    • 🥛 2 cups heavy cream
    • 🧂 ¼ cup white sugar
    • 🧂 1 pinch salt
    • 🟤 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    • 🥚 5 egg yolks
    • 🧂 4 tablespoons white sugar

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).

2

Place about 2 tablespoons of the chocolate chips into each of four 6-ounce ramekins. Melt chocolate in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval.

3

Spread the melted chocolate to coat the sides and bottom of each ramekin.

4

Bring a large pot of water to a boil.

5

In a saucepan, whisk together the cream, ¼ cup sugar, and salt. Heat over medium until steam rises.

6

In a separate bowl, whisk together egg yolks and vanilla. Gradually add hot cream to the yolks while whisking continuously, then combine all.

7

Ladle the custard mixture into the chocolate-lined ramekins.

8

Place a towel in the bottom of a baking dish and arrange ramekins on top. Pour boiling water into the dish until halfway up the sides of ramekins.

9

Cover the dish loosely with foil and bake for 35–40 minutes until the custard is set.

10

Refrigerate the ramekins for 4–6 hours.

11

Before serving, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sugar atop each creme brulee, then caramelize using a kitchen torch or oven’s broiler for 2–3 minutes.
