Classic crème brûlée is a rich and creamy French custard dessert topped with a layer of crisp, caramelized sugar. Made with just a few simple ingredients—heavy cream, egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla—it’s gently baked in a water bath for a silky-smooth texture. Once chilled, the top is sprinkled with sugar and torched to create a glass-like, golden-brown crust. This elegant dessert offers a delightful contrast between the cool, velvety custard and the warm, crackly topping.
