How Do You Make Amaretto Creme Brulee?
This classic French dessert, Amaretto Crème Brulee, is one of my favorites. It is easy to make and the almond flavor makes it one of the best Crème Brulee desserts out there. It has a crisp sugar glaze and a wonderful creamy texture. To start your Crème Brulee, preheat the oven to 300 degrees F and place 6 (1-cup, 1″ deep) ramekins or crème brulee dishes in 1″ deep, 17X11″ jellyroll pan. In a bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups cream, nondairy creamer, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, yolks, egg and cornstarch until smooth. Divide among ramekins. Place in oven. Fill the jellyroll pan with enough water to come halfway up sides of ramekins. Next, bake you crème brulee for 30 minutes until set in the center. Transfer ramekins from pan to rack and cool for 30 minutes. Refrigerate the crème brulee until chilled or at least one hour and discard water in pan. Just before serving your crème brulee, position the broiler rack so that the top of custards will be 4″ from the heat source. Preheat the broiler.
