Creme Brulee with Mango

I always wanted to try to make a creme brulee. And so I did :) I added some mango to bring more flavor. 

Ingredients

  • 2 1/3 cups heave cream
  • 1 Tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 4 large egg yolks
  • 2 Tsp brown sugar

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.

2. Place the cream, vanilla into a medium saucepan set over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Stir always. Remove from the heat, cover and allow to sit for 15 minutes. 




3. In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar and the egg yolks until well blended. Blend carefully. 





4. Add half of cream to the egg yolks and sugar and mix it together. Add the rest of cream and gently combine. 


5. Cut mango and put it into 7 to 8-ounce ramekins. 



6. Pour the liquid into small ramekins. Place the ramekins into a large cake pan or roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake just until the creme brulee is set, but still trembling in the center, approximately 40 to 45 minutes. Remove the ramekins from the oven. 




7. Sprinkle the top of creme brulee with brown sugar and put it back in the oven for 10 minutes or so until sugar gets melted. Afterwards, refrigerate creme brulee for at least 2 hours and up to 3 days.
