Creme Brulee for Two

This rich and creamy creme brulee for two is the perfect end to any meal!

Hello, friends! Are you a dessert lover like I am? You’ve probably heard me mention before how much I love brownies more than cake, but, I honestly, I can’t truly say I’ve ever met a dessert I didn’t like. And, since I’m being honest, another of my dessert loves is creme brulee. So, when I heard that this month’s #12bloggers theme was ‘dessert for two, I immediately knew that a creme brulee for two was the perfect choice.

It’s a very simple recipe that makes just the right amount for two people to share an amazingly rich and creamy dessert. Or, lets face it, if you really don’t want to share, this can be a two-serving creme brulee for one.

If you’ve never baked using a water bath, no worries. It’s super easy, and doesn’t require any fancy tools, which is the way I prefer to do things around here.

You will, however, unless you want to hunt for turbinado sugar that will easily melt under the broiler, which I didn’t, need a torch. Nothing fancy, a simple one will do.

Creme brulee has been a favorite of mine for quite some time, and I’m love being able to make just enough for my sweetie and me to share on a special occasion, or for no occasion at all.
