Cappuccino Creme Brûlée Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, beat all ingredients except chocolate with wire whisk until smooth.
• Pour mixture into 8 ungreased 6-ounce ramekins. Place ramekins in shallow roasting pan. Fill pan with hot water to halfway up sides of ramekins.
• Bake 30 to 35 minutes or just until set. Remove ramekins to cooling rack. Cool 30 minutes. Meanwhile, in small microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate uncovered on High 30 to 40 seconds, stirring every 15 seconds, until melted and smooth.
• Spoon about 2 teaspoons melted chocolate over top of each custard, spreading evenly to form a thin layer. Cover; refrigerate at least 1 hour or until well chilled.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
• In a medium-size bowl, beat egg yolks and 6 tablespoons sugar with a whisk for approximately 1 minute, or until smooth. Reserve.
• In a second medium-size bowl, add coffee and 1/4 cup creme. Whisk thoroughly until smooth, then add remaining creme and whisk until well blended. Add coffee creme mixture and vanilla to egg yolks. Use a rubber spatula to gently fold together.
• Use a ladle to pour mixture into individual ramekins, 3/4 of the way to the
• top.
• Place ramekins into a roasting pan. Transfer to oven. Before closing oven
• door, pour water into pan (but not into the ramekins themselves!) until it
• reaches 1/2 way up the side of the ramekins.
• Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until when you shake the pan, the brulee giggles slightly. Remove from oven and leave out on counter, allowing the residual heat of the water to finish the cooking process.
• When brulees have fully solidified and cooled down, sprinkle 1 1/2
• tablespoons of sugar evenly overtop each individual portion. Under a watchful eye, use a small blowtorch to caramelize the sugar.
• Alternatively, place ramekins 1-inch below oven broiler until sugar caramelizes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• In a medium saucepan, add the heavy cream, espresso powder and vanilla bean paste. Bring to a light simmer, then let simmer for 5 minutes. Take off the heat and cool to room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• In a nonreactive bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and granulated sugar until combined and lighter in color. Slowly add the cooled cream mixture, whisking constantly. Place eight 6-ounce ramekins in a large roasting pan or baking dish. Pour the mixture into the ramekins. Place the roasting pan in the oven, then pour hot water into the bottom of the roasting pan, enough so the water comes about halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake until set and just a teensy bit jiggly, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove the ramekins from the oven and let cool on the counter until they reach room temperature, then place the ramekins in the fridge for 2 hours to chill. If storing longer (up to 2 days), tightly wrap each ramekin in plastic wrap to ensure freshness.
• Evenly sprinkle the top of each ramekin with the turbinado sugar. Using a brulee torch, melt the sugar until it bubbles and turns dark golden brown. This will form a crunchy top. Let sit a few minutes. Serve topped with some crushed chocolate-covered espresso beans, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat over to 325. Arrange six 3/4 cup ramekins in 13x9x2 metal baking pan.
• Combine cream, sugar and espresso powder in heavy saucepan. Bring to simmer over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat.
• Whisk yolks, cinnamon and nutmeg in medium bowl. Gradually whisk in cream mixture, then vanilla. Divide custard among ramekins.
• Pour hot water into pan to come halfway up sides of ramekins. Bake until custards are softly set about 30 minutes. Remove from water. Chill until cold, at least 3 hours.
• Preheat boiler. Press 1/2 tablespoon brown sugar through sieve onto each custard. Broil until sugar bubbles and caramelizes about 2 minutes. Chill until topping hardens at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours. Serves cold.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Beat egg yolks, 4 tablespoons white sugar and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl until thick and creamy.
• Pour cream into a saucepan and stir over low heat until it almost comes to boil. Remove the cream from heat immediately. Stir cream into the egg yolk mixture; beat until combined.
• Pour cream mixture into the top pan of a double boiler. Stir over simmering water until mixture lightly coats the back of a spoon, about 3 minutes. Remove mixture from heat immediately and pour into a shallow heat-proof dish.
• Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Preheat oven to broil.
• In a small bowl combine remaining 2 tablespoons white sugar and brown sugar. Sift this mixture evenly over custard. Place dish under broiler until sugar melts, about 2 minutes. Watch carefully so as not to burn.
• Remove from heat and allow to cool. Refrigerate until custard is set again.

Steps:

• Place eight 3/4-cup custard cups in large roasting pan. Combine cream, 1 cup sugar, ground espresso beans, instant espresso powder and cinnamon stick in heavy large saucepan. Using small sharp knife, scrape seeds from vanilla bean into mixture; add bean. Bring to boil, stirring until sugar and espresso powder dissolve. Remove from heat. Cover; let stand 30 minutes. Strain through fine sieve.
• Preheat oven to 325°F. Whisk egg yolks and egg in large bowl to blend. Gradually whisk in cream mixture. Divide among custard cups in pan. Pour enough hot water into roasting pan to come halfway up sides of custard cups. Bake custards until center moves only slightly when cups are gently shaken, about 55 minutes. Remove custards from pan. Cool; refrigerate uncovered overnight.
• Preheat broiler. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon sugar over each custard. Place custard cups on baking sheet. Broil until sugar is brown and caramelized, rotating baking sheet to broil evenly and watching closely to avoid burning, 1 to 2 minutes. Chill custards 1 hour. Serve.
