Addie staff in the kitchen: Ina Garten’s chocolate crème brûlée (videos)
For this week's Addie staff in the kitchen’s recipe, we tried our hand at a mouth-watering chocolate crème brûlée.
We tried Ina Garten’s chocolate crème brûlée recipe this week and were amazed with the results. Try it now.
Ingredients:
• 1 egg.
• 4 egg yolks.
• ½ cup of sugar, plus extra for topping.
• 3 cups (750ml) cream.
• 230g dark chocolate (bittersweet).
• 1 teaspoon coffee granules.
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
*The original recipe says to add ¼ cup of coffee liqueur, but we thought we’d keep it family friendly. If you want you can add the alcohol.
Method:
STEP 2: Preheat the oven to 135°C and place 6 ramekins in a deep oven dish which is large enough to hold them flat.
STEP 8: Transfer mixture to a measuring cup (easier for pouring) and pour into ramekins until full.
STEP 11: When serving, spoon sugar evenly on each custard and, with a kitchen blowtorch, heat the sugar until it caramalises evenly. Allow to cool for 5 minutes and serve.
