I'm going to keep this post short and sweet - this is mostly just to show off the pictures of the final product...
I made crème brûlée for the first time tonight and expected it to completely fail. Mostly because I didn't follow a recipe - just looked up the ingredients and decided to "wing it". I also didn't have all of the right ingredients, so I improvised.
Surprisingly, my crème brûlée came out perfectly. No curdling, no fires, no crumbly topping... Who knew?
Sorry for the lack of recipe, but the ingredients I used were egg yolk, granulated sugar, half & half, vanilla bean powder, and nutmeg. I preheated the oven to 280 and baked it for about 40 minutes - baking time could vary...

I'm as proud as a kid who just successfully tied their shoe laces for the first time...
