I wound up mixing altons and this recipe and found a happy medium and oh man it was so good! The nice thing about creme brulee is that there are so many variations and you can tweek the recipe to suit your taste but for beginners i would reccomend following exactly then after making it a few times find out what you like. For my vanilla i split and steeped whole vanilla beans in the cream and also added bourbon vanilla to my egg mixture and i used 8 egg yolks and it was very rich and has got to be the very best ive ever tasted

So easy and creamy dreamy. I made a big boo boo and dumped the sugar into the cream instead of the eggs. Forged calmly ahead and it turned out fine. I just stirred the sugar into the cream as it heated. I did beat the eggs with an additional Tbs. of sugar, then slowly whisked in the hot cream mixture. Don't do that on purpose - but if you make the same mistake, don't despair. Oh - I also cut the recipe in half and it made four lovely desserts. Four egg yolks worked fine and kept it from being too eggy.

I made this for my dessert party which was my star dish but it didn't make it out of the fridge. It tasted eggy so you may want to add some vanilla extract and taste as you go to make sure it has the vanilla taste desired. I will be making it again but don't think I will be using the vanilla bean but pure real vanilla extract. Happy Cooking!

Wow! Make this and impress everyone who eats it. My husband loves creme brulee and said this is the best he's ever had. One thing I added was 1 tablespoon of Grand Marnier, but would be great without it. Make sure you refrigerate for a couple hours to set up before serving.

This is the BEST recipe I've found, and it is probably the best I've eaten, including at restaurants. I used regular sugar and it was still very smooth and creamy. A bit too sweet for my husband, so a little less sugar might be okay. Some recipes leave out heating the cream, but those aren't really creme brulee, as the name means "burnt cream." I use brown sugar on top (a verrrry thin layer and 'torch' it under the broiler, it comes out perfectly. The brown sugar has a more caramelly taste, with undertones of roasted marshmallow. : My bathroom scale won't be happy I found this recipe, but my tastebuds sure are!
