Chocolate Banana Crème Brûlée
The Cuisinart ® PowerEdge ® 700 Blender makes this impressive
dessert quick and easy. Both kids and adults will love it.
Makes 6 servings
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
1 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped
4 ounces milk chocolate
6 large egg yolks
½ cup granulated sugar, divided
1 banana, sliced
Preheat an oven to 325°F with the rack in the middle position.
In a small sauce pan, combine the heavy cream, milk and vanilla
bean, including the pod. Set over medium heat and bring just to a
simmer. Remove the vanilla bean pod and discard.
Place the chocolate, egg yolks, 3 tablespoons of the granulated
sugar and hot cream/milk mixture in the jar of the Cuisinart
®
PowerEdge ® 700 Blender. Set on High; run for 30 seconds.
Evenly divide the mixture among 6 shallow ramekins. Skim the
foam off of the top by blotting with a paper towel. Place the
ramekins in a rimmed baking pan and then add water to a depth of
¼ inch of the ramekins.
Bake for 40 minutes, or until just set. Cool to room temperature
and then chill overnight.
Before serving, place banana slices evenly on top of each chilled
custard and then liberally sprinkle the reserved sugar over each.
Using a kitchen torch, caramelize the sugar by quickly moving the
flame back and forth about 1 inch above the ramekin.
