These delicious little Creme Brulees need to be made ahead and chilled before caramelising the topping making them perfect for dinner parties.

Ingredients

  • 600ml cream
  • 1 orange rind, grated
  • 8 egg yolks
  • 1/4 cup CSR Caster Sugar
  • 4 heaped tbs CSR Demerara Sugar

Method

  1. Place cream & grated orange rind in a saucepan. Gently heat until just about to boil but do not boil. Beat egg yolks & CSR Caster Sugar together in a bowl until pale & thick. Pour the hot cream into this and beat well. Clean & dry saucepan, then return the custard mixture to the saucepan. Stir over medium heat until it thickens, about 10 mins. Divide evenly between the 4 ramekins & refrigerate until cold to set, preferably overnight
  2. To serve, sprinkle CSR Demerara Sugar over the set custard & caramelise with a blowtorch or under a preheated hot grill. The demerara will melt like toffee and set hard if left to cool.
