Sugar Cookie Creme Brulee | Instead of leaving cookies for Santa, leave him a Sugar Cookie Creme Brulee!
I can’t tell you how excited I was to see the International Delight® holiday coffee creamers at Walmart the other day. They can only be found this time of year and, for me, that makes finally getting to enjoy them extra special.
I grabbed two (this time… you know I’ll go back for more!), International Delight® Sugar Cookie Coffee Creamer and International Delight® Chocolate Hazelnut Coffee Creamer. I’m pretty sure I’ll be headed back soon for the International Delight® Pumpkin Pie Spice Coffee Creamer!
The weather is getting colder and that means enjoying time by the fire. Being in Arizona, for us that means using the fire pit outside. It’s one of my favorite things to do this time of year. While the kids were warming up with their hot cocoa, I was enjoyed a hot cup of coffee. With the Chocolate Hazelnut creamer, the scene couldn’t have been more perfect.
I love using the Frosted Sugar Cookie Creamer in coffee, but instead I wanted to do something a little different with the Sugar Cookie creamer. I decided to use the Sugar Cookie creamer to make Creme Brulee. Wouldn’t it be fun to leave Sugar Cookie Creme Brulee out for Santa instead of cookies? I’m pretty sure Santa would love a little mix up in the sweets he gets to enjoy this year. Plus, it couldn’t have been an easier dessert to make!
First bring the creamer to a simmer, then add it to the beaten eggs and vanilla.
Then disperse your mixture in ramekins.
Bake in the oven until they are a little jiggly, and refrigerate until they are firm. When it’s time to serve, top each with a tablespoon of sugar.
Use a kitchen torch or broiler to caramelize the sugar until there is a hard shell.
Aren’t they gorgeous? They can be made for Santa, but they’re also the prefect dessert for a holiday party. Delicious and elegant. These creme brulees will look beautiful and dress up any dessert table.
