If you’re anything like me you have probably thought that a dessert like creme brulee was super fancy and only served in up-class cafes. Well, we are both wrong guys and gals. creme brulee certainly does look and sound fancy but it only consists of 5 basic ingredients. If you’ve got sugar, eggs, cream, vanilla, and water you have the bare essentials for making creme brulee. Yay for you! Plus, it’s easy to make.
My 16-year-old daughter enjoys making these little individual creme brulees for our family. It only takes her a little while to get everything whipped up and in the oven. The dessert smells heavenly as it bakes.

2 cups whipping cream
1/3 cup Domino granulated sugar
