EGGNOG CRèME BRûLéE



Eggnog Crème Brûlée image

A splash of bourbon and a generous grating of fresh nutmeg transform this simple custard into a holiday sensation. Make the custard in advance, but wait to caramelize the topping about 10 minutes before serving. The sugar will not hold its signature crunch if subjected to much extra time in a humid refrigerator. While it may be a single-use gadget, a kitchen torch is an inexpensive tool worth the investment. It does the best job at caramelizing the top without warming the custard, and it's so fun to use.

Categories     custards and puddings, dessert

Time 45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 large egg yolks
1/2 cup/101 grams granulated sugar, plus up to 1/2 cup/101 grams for sprinkling
3/4 teaspoons freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
1 tablespoon bourbon

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Put 8 shallow 4-ounce crème brûlée dishes in a large roasting pan. Bring a kettle of water to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, in an 8-cup glass measuring cup (or large bowl), whisk together egg yolks, 1/2 cup/101 grams sugar, nutmeg and salt. Whisk in heavy cream, milk and bourbon. Divide mixture carefully among crème brûlée dishes. Transfer roasting pan to the oven.
  • Very carefully pour the boiling water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the crème brûlée dishes. Bake until the edges of the custard are set but jiggle in the center, 25 to 30 minutes, taking care not to overcook.
  • With a spatula or tongs, carefully transfer the dishes to a rack to cool completely. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 2 days.
  • Just before serving, remove the plastic wrap and sprinkle one of the custards evenly with 2 to 3 teaspoons sugar. Pass a kitchen torch over the surface until the sugar melts and turns a deep golden brown. Repeat with the remaining custards. Allow the sugar to cool for a few minutes.

EGGNOG CREME BRULEE



Eggnog Creme Brulee image

I have been making creme brulee for my wife for quite some time and one day she asked me, 'Honey, is it possible to make creme brulee out of eggnog? I think that would be so yummy.' So, I bought some eggnog and set about finding out if it is possible, and it is. You can also take the same recipe and pour it into a prepared pie crust for an eggnog custard pie. It's a lot less work and hassle than individual ramekins.

Time 4h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups eggnog
4 egg yolks
¼ cup white sugar
3 ounces mascarpone cheese, softened
1 dash ground nutmeg
1 dash ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place 4 ramekins or custard cups into a shallow baking dish, and fill the dish with water to half-way up the sides of the ramekins.
  • Pour the eggnog into a pan over medium heat. Cook and stir occasionally until the mixture simmers, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the egg yolks and sugar into a mixing bowl; beat until light colored and frothy. Stir in the mascarpone until well blended and smooth. Whisk 1/4 cup of the heated eggnog mixture into the eggs. Gradually whisk the remaining eggnog into the eggs. Pour the mixture through a fine sieve to remove any egg strands. If desired, stir in the nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla. Pour into the prepared ramekins, dividing evenly.
  • Bake in preheated oven until custard has set, 30 to 45 minutes. Centers should wiggle slightly when shaken, but not be soupy.
  • Remove from oven and cool 30 minutes; refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving.

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 cups whipping cream
2/3 cup sugar
8 large egg yolks
1/4 cup dark rum
1 tablespoon brandy
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Large pinch of salt
1/3 cup (packed) golden brown sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Place 11x8-inch (8-cup capacity) shallow ceramic baking dish in roasting pan. Mix cream and 2/3 cup sugar in medium saucepan. Bring to simmer, stirring until sugar dissolves. Whisk yolks in medium bowl. Gradually whisk in hot cream mixture, then rum, brandy, nutmeg, and salt. Transfer to baking dish. Pour enough hot water into roasting pan to come halfway up sides of dish. Carefully transfer pan to oven.
  • Bake until custard is set around edges but center still jiggles slightly when dish is gently shaken, about 40 minutes. Remove ceramic dish from water. Chill custard on rack until cold, at least 3 hours. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and keep chilled.)
  • Preheat broiler. Press brown sugar through strainer over custard to cover completely and evenly. Watching closely, broil custard 4 to 6 inches from heat source until sugar bubbles and caramelizes, about 2 minutes. Chill custard until topping hardens, at least 1 hour and up to 3 hours. Serve cold.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Make sure the egg yolks and sugar are well combined before adding the hot milk to prevent curdling.
  • Cook the custard mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
  • Strain the custard mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove any lumps.
  • Cover the custard mixture with plastic wrap and chill it for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Preheat the oven to the highest setting before broiling the crème brûlée to create a crispy, caramelized top.
  • Keep an eye on the crème brûlée while it is broiling to prevent it from burning.
  • Let the crème brûlée cool for a few minutes before serving to allow the topping to set.

Conclusion:
