Рецепт Chocolate Creme Brulee (includes metric)
by Lois B

You know how some people have very set ideas of what a birthday celebration should be? My family typically serves cake, usually chocolate. Ice cream is an occasional afterthought. I had to laugh when a girlfriend told me that her husband and son (who had been with us for a birthday celebration while she was out of town) were so surprised that I hadn't served ice cream with the cake that they had to stop at Dairy Queen on their way home - it just didn't seem like a birthday to them without it.

I hope my coworkers aren't so set in their ways. Today was the November birthday party and the overwhelming request from the birthday kids was chocolate. So I made chocolate creme brulee - no cake, no ice cream. You'll notice that my sugar technique needs a little work, but the comments were very positive. I think Sandi compared it to a thicker, creamier hot chocolate.

Ingredients

Directions

Preheat oven to 325F (165 C)

Place 8-6 ounce ramekins on baking sheet.

Combine cream with vanilla and sugar in a saucepan. Heat until simmering.

Whisk egg yolks in a large bowl. Slowly add hot cream mixture, whisking in 2 tablespoons at a time, until you've added about 1 cup.

Then add remaining cream, whisk.

Add chocolate chips, wait 5 minutes, then whisk.

Ladle into ramekins.

Bake 20 - 25 minutes, until just set, center may still have a little jiggle to it.

Cool 45 minutes, then refrigerate at least 6 hours before serving.

Sprinkle the top of the custard with a thin layer of turbinado sugar. Melt and caramelize the sugar with a torch or under the broiler.
