???? **CLASSIC CRÈME BRÛLÉE**
A silky French dessert with a rich vanilla custard base and a thin, crisp caramelized sugar topping. This recipe comes together with simple ingredients but delivers an elegant, restaurant-style finish.
### ???? Ingredients
* 500 ml heavy cream
* 5 large egg yolks
* 75 g granulated sugar
* 1 vanilla bean or 2 tsp vanilla extract
* 2–3 tbsp granulated sugar for caramelizing
* A small pinch of salt
* Fresh strawberries and mint for optional garnish
### ???????? How to Make
**1. Heat the Cream**
Warm the heavy cream gently in a saucepan. Add vanilla and let it infuse without bringing the cream to a full boil.
**2. Prepare the Egg Mixture**
Whisk the egg yolks, sugar, and a pinch of salt until smooth and pale.
**3. Combine**
Slowly pour the warm vanilla cream into the egg mixture while whisking continuously. This creates a smooth custard without scrambling the eggs.
**4. Fill the Ramekins**
Strain the custard to remove any lumps and vanilla pieces if desired. Pour evenly into small ceramic ramekins.
**5. Bake**
Place the ramekins in a hot-water bath and bake gently until the edges are set while the center remains slightly jiggly.
**6. Chill**
Cool the custards, then refrigerate for several hours until completely set.
**7. Caramelize**
Sprinkle a thin, even layer of sugar over each custard. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until golden brown and crisp.
✨ **Final Result:** Crack through the glass-like caramel topping to reveal smooth, creamy vanilla custard underneath. Serve immediately after caramelizing for the best texture.
