Creme Brulee

 A while back I received a Creme Brulee kit as a gift. I finally got it out and gave it a go. Fairly simple recipe.Heat whipping cream, Half & Half, and the mix until boils then place in ramekin and chill. Then sprinkle caramelizing sugar (not sure how differs from regular sugar but I will find out) on top and torch until golden brown.

The torching was fun as anytime you get to play with fire is a good thing. Overall the taste was good. Sweet and creamy with crunchy sugary surprise. The custard did not firm up as much as I think it should have. For my next batch I will make custard from scratch instead of the mix. A nice dessert.
