Steps:
- Heat heavy cream and vanilla extract in a sauce pan until hot, but not boiling.
- In a medium bowl, whisk egg yolks and half of sugar until well mixed. Pour in the hot cream gradually, mixing continually.
- Pour hot water into a large roasting pan. Place six ramekins into the pan (the water should come roughly halfway up the sides of the ramekins).
- Pour the egg mixture into the ramekins and bake at 325˚F (165˚C) for 45 - 50 minutes. The crème brûlée should be set, but still a little jiggly in the middle.
- Remove the ramekins from the roasting pan, allow to cool to room temperature, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least two hours and up to three days.
- Remove the crème brûlée from the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before browning the sugar on top. Spread a tablespoon of sugar on top of each crème brûlée.
- Using a torch, melt the sugar to for a crispy top. If you don't have a torch, you can broil the crème brûlée to melt the sugar. Keep an eye on it, to make sure you don't over cook it. Allow the crème brûlée to sit for at least five minutes before serving.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the ice cream in 20 second intervals, stirring between, until melted. Let the ice cream cool for 5 minutes. Whisk in egg yolks one at a time until the mixture is smooth and consistent. Pour evenly into 2 oven-safe ramekins.
- Move the ramekins to a baking dish with a high rim. Pour boiling water into the baking dish until half-way up each ramekin. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until set but still jiggly in the center. Allow to cool completely, then wrap with plastic wrap and transfer to the fridge for 2 hours or up to 3 days.
- When ready to serve, let the ramekins come to room temperature for 30 minutes, then sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sugar over each creme brulee. If you have a kitchen blow torch, torch the sugar until golden and bubbly. If you don't, broil on the top rack of the oven at 500°F for 2-3 minutes, watching to make sure they don't burn. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Whisk 3 tablespoons sugar and cream in a microwave-safe bowl until well combined; heat the mixture in microwave until warm, 1 to 2 minutes, and whisk again to dissolve sugar. Whisk in egg yolks and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour cream mixture into 2 ramekins. Set ramekins into a roasting pan and pour in enough hot water to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
- Bake in the preheated oven until creme desserts are set but still slightly jiggly when shaken, about 50 minutes. Remove ramekins from hot water and chill in refrigerator until cold, at least 2 hours.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sugar evenly over the top of each dessert. Use a kitchen torch to lightly toast and melt the sugar topping until brown and bubbly, about 30 seconds. Let the sugar topping cool before serving. To serve, use a spoon to crack the crisp sugar open to reveal the creamy dessert underneath.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: This will ensure that your crème brûlée has the best possible flavor.
- Don't overcook the custard: The custard should be cooked until it is just set, but not firm. Otherwise, it will be rubbery.
- Let the crème brûlée chill thoroughly before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the custard to firm up.
- Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar on top of the crème brûlée: This will give it a beautiful golden brown color and a delicious crunch.
- Serve the crème brûlée immediately: This is when it is at its best.
Conclusion:
Crème brûlée is a classic French dessert that is sure to impress your guests. It is relatively easy to make, but it does require some patience. With a little time and effort, you can create a delicious crème brûlée that will be the perfect ending to any meal.
