    Creme Brulee Tarts


    Source of Recipe


    Chyrel

    List of Ingredients




    6 prebaked individual 4 inch tartlet cases for these amounts, either
    homemade sweet shortcrust pastry or bought ones.
    4 egg yolks,
    1.75oz caster sugar,
    14 fluid oz double cream,
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2oz Demerara sugar.

    Recipe



    Beat the egg yolks and caster sugar until pale. Heat the cream and vanilla until just below boiling point
    then add to the egg mixture, whisking constantly.

    Put the mixture in a pan and bring to just below the boil, stirring until thick. DO NOT allow it to boil or
    it will curdle.

    Leave the mixture to cool slightly then pour into the pastry cases. Leave to cool completely then chill
    for a few hours or overnight.

    Just before serving, sprinkle the Demerera over the tarts and place under a hot grill for a few minutes
    until sugar caramelises. Cool for a few minutes before serving.
