Fun with a blow torch...

I got a creme brulee set for Christmas, and it was time to put it to use. I also got a giftcard to Williams-Sanoma, where I managed to find a creme brulee cookbook for $5! I decided to try a basic recipe, with a few minor changes. In case you were wondering, vanilla beans are really freaking expensive, so I used some vanilla extract instead. And I decided a little Kahlua would give it a great flavor. It was a decent first attempt, and I think the creme brulee set will be a lot of fun to play around with!

It's kind of fun to play with fire :)

The finished product

I'll add the recipe later, once I master the technique. For now, I'll be playing around w/ various recipes.
