My daughter mentioned a few weeks ago that she really wanted some creme brulee, and asked if we might make it together. So today I called her up, brought her to my place, and we did just that!

9 eggs, half and half, sugar, heavy cream, and of course we used the torch to caramelize the sugar on top! we also made dinner a bit more special, put on some music, lit some candles, and enjoyed a great meal, topped off with the creme brulee. we were laughing while eating dessert, it was so good! we recounted the fattening ingredients, tried to figure out a way to make it lo-cal, decided it wasn't worth it, then laughed some more :lol:

Good for you!!

Sounds like a wonderful evening Keltic! What fun for you and your daughter. :)

I've never tried creme brulée. Not much of a dessert chef.

Years ago I did try a fat-free, sugar-free trifle. You. Do. Not. Want. To. Know. What. It. Tasted. Like!!!!!!!! :sick: :sick: :sick: We had to salvage it with Cool Whip and marshmallow fluff!! :lol: Really. NEVER make fat-free sugar-free trifle. :lol:

Sounds great! Yum!

We stumbled on a great combination: a hunk of South American baking chocolate ( a little spice in there) and a glass of merlot. Surprisingly, they go well together.
