This creme brûlée is a simple but elegant dessert that will impress all of your guests! You just can’t beat a creamy custard topped with caramelized sugar and delicious fresh fruit!

Creme Brûlée

The thought of making creme brûlée can be intimidating if you’ve never made it! But trust me, it’s easier than you think! It is made with just a few ingredients and very little prep time! One of the best things about creme brûlée is that you can make it a few hours or even a few days in advance! You just have to finish off the topping just before you’re ready to serve. This recipe tastes just as good (if not better!) as all of the ones that I have tried at fancy restaurants! This creme brûlée makes the perfect dessert for serving to guests — they’ll be wowed by its presentation! But the reality is that you didn’t have to spend a lot of hands-on time preparing it. Creme brûlée is made of eggs, cream, sugar, and vanilla! That’s it! It makes a delicious custard-like filling that you put into a dish (called a ramekin) and let set. Then you torch it to get that crispy top. It is SOO GOOD and definitely one of my favorite desserts ever! Once you are done trying out this recipe, you MUST try these cannolis, this easy English trifle, and this rice pudding!

Ingredients You Need to Make Creme Brûlée

You only need FOUR ingredients to make this! Don’t let its presentation scare you… Anyone can make this!! See the recipe card at the bottom of the post for a list of exact measurements.

Heavy cream: This is what will give it that familiar, custard taste!Egg yolks: Using only egg yolks helps get that creamy texture. If you used whole eggs (including the egg whites) then it would be too firm and set. Granulated sugar: This makes the flavor sweet! Use a little bit less than called for on the recipe card if you don’t like it quite as sweet! You will also use this for the topping to get that crunchy top! Vanilla: This enhances all of the sweet flavors!
