Ingredients
for 1 serving
½ cup vanilla ice cream
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon sugar
Preparation
-Preheat the oven to 325˚F (160˚C).
-Scoop the ice cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the ice cream for 30 to 40 seconds or until completely melted. Allow to cool for 5 minutes.
-Add the egg yolk into the melted ice cream and whisk well.
-Pour the mixture into a ramekin. Place the ramekin in a pan. Pour hot water into the pan to come roughly halfway up the sides of the ramekin.
-Bake for 40-50 minutes. The crème brûlée should be set, but still a little jiggly in the middle. Remove the ramekins from the roasting pan, allow to cool to room temperature, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, and up to 3 days.
-Remove the crème brûlée from the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before browning the sugar on top.
-Sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar on top of each crème brûlée. Using a torch, melt the sugar to an amber color for a crispy top. If you don’t have a torch, you can broil the crème brûlée to melt the sugar. Keep an eye on it to make sure you don’t overcook it.
-Allow the crème brûlée to sit for at least 5 minutes before serving.
-You can also make various crème brûlée flavors by using different ice cream flavors.
If you are using flavored ice cream, use 1 egg instead of 1 yolk.
I made some today using lemon-blueberry ice cream from Wegmans.
A full pint will yield 4 ramekin servings.
