Time 3h55m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups white chocolate chips
1 tablespoon coconut oil
4 cups popped popcorn
Smoked sea salt, for sprinkling
4 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste
6 large egg yolks
1 cup sugar
8 cups hot water
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon freshly cracked toasted pink peppercorns

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • For the white chocolate popcorn: Set up a double boiler. Add the white chocolate and stir to melt. Whisk in the coconut oil, then set aside to cool.
  • Place the popped popcorn onto a sheet pan lined with a silicone mat. Pour the white chocolate evenly over the popcorn and sprinkle with smoked sea salt. Place into the freezer to chill for at least 10 minutes, or until the chocolate is set. Remove from the freezer and break into pieces.
  • For the butterscotch crème brûlée: In a medium saucepan, add in the heavy cream, instant espresso powder and vanilla bean paste. Bring to a light simmer for 15 minutes. Take off the heat and cool for 15 minutes.
  • In a non-reactive bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and 1/2 cup of the sugar until combined and lighter in color. Slowly add in the heated cream mixture, whisking constantly. Pour the mixture into twelve 8-ounce ramekins. Place the ramekins into a large roasting pan and fill the roasting pan with the hot water, making sure not to get the crème wet. Bake until the crème is set and just a teensy bit jiggly, 40 minutes. Place into the fridge for at least 2 hours to cool. If storing longer (up to 2 days) tightly wrap each ramekin to ensure freshness.
  • Take the crème out of the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving. Evenly top the ramekins with the remaining 1/2 cup sugar. Using a brûlée torch, melt the sugar until it bubbles and turns dark golden brown. This will form a crispy top that will only get crispier for the next 5 minutes, so be sure to wait a couple more.
  • For the pink peppercorn whipped cream: Whip the cream with a hand mixer until soft peaks form. Stir in the pink peppercorns.
  • Serve immediately topped with the pink peppercorn whipped cream and white chocolate sea salt popcorn.

BUTTERSCOTCH CREME BRULEE



Butterscotch Creme Brulee image

I like the subtle character that the butterscotch brings to the custard. Most Creme Brulee recipes use all heavy cream; this is somewhat lighter because of the use of half-and-half, but there's no mistaking that this is a rich, decadent dessert. This recipe does require a brulee torch to do properly, though I understand that it can be done by placing under your oven's broiler and carefully watching. You will need 4 ramekins, something that can withstand the cooking temperatures of an oven.

Time 3h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 ounces heavy cream
10 ounces half-and-half
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped
4 egg yolks
2/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon liqueur, butterscotch
4 tablespoons sugar, for brulee coating

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Split vanilla bean down the middle and scrape out the insides. Heat heavy cream, half-and-half, and vanilla bean (all of it, including the husk) on medium-high until it just comes to a boil. Remove from heat, cover, and allow to rest for 15 minutes.
  • Whisk egg yolks and 2/3 cup of sugar together with butterscotch liqueur. Gradually stream some of the hot cream and vanilla mixture into the bowl while constantly stirring. Keep stirring to keep egg from scrambling. Continue until both mixtures are fully incorporated.
  • Pour mixture through a fine mesh strainer and equally divide between 4 ramekins. Place the ramekins in a deep baking pan. Add enough water to come to halfway up the side of the ramekins.
  • Cook in oven for 45 minutes, until the surface is set but still trembling when shaken.
  • Allow to cool slightly, then move to refrigerator to cool for at least 2 hours and up to 3 days.
  • When ready to finish, remove from refrigerator and place at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Distribute 1 tablespoon of sugar on the surface of each ramekin. Gently rotate and tap the sides of each ramekin if necessary.
  • Using a brulee torch set to the highest setting, gradually melt the sugar on the surface of each ramekin. The sugar will bead up and turn to liquid form; move the torch to another area if the sugar starts to blacken. Some blackening is desirable. After going over the surface, some unmelted sugar will remain. Go back over these areas with the torch until they're melted, but stop if it turns black.
  • Allow to sit for a few minutes before serving.

BUTTERSCOTCH CRèME BRûLéE RECIPE - (4.2/5)



Butterscotch Crème Brûlée Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by davidv

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups heavy cream
3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar, divided
9 large egg yolks
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 Tbsp dark spiced rum
White sugar (2-1/2 tsp for 5-oz ramekins or 1-1/2 tsp for 3-oz ramekins)

Steps:

  • Bring the heavy cream and 1/2 cup of the sugar to a simmer in a 2-qt saucepan. Lightly whisk together the egg yolks and 1/4 cup of the sugar in a medium-size mixing bowl. Temper the egg mixture by slowly pouring the cream mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly. Add the vanilla and the rum and continue whisking until fully incorporated. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl. Place the bowl with the brûlée mixture into an ice water bath and let cool completely. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Place the ramekins in a large baking dish, and then divide the brûlée mixture evenly between the ramekins, filling them 3/4 of the way full. Place the baking dish in the middle rack of the oven, and then fill it with hot tap water to 2/3 of the way up the ramekin sides. If you're using 7 (3-oz) ramekins bake for 25-35 minutes or 35-45 minutes for 4 (5-oz) ramekins, until a there's a light jiggle in the centers. Remove the ramekins from the oven and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight. Just before serving, sprinkle the white sugar over each cooled crème brûlée and torch until all of the sugar is melted and golden brown. Serve immediately.
