By

  • 6

Ingredients

  • 1/2 C packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 C granulated sugar

Preparation

Step 1

Combine both sugars, then spread the mixture on a parchment-lined baking sheet. After baking the brulees, turn off the oven and place the sugar pan inside the oven for an hour to dry out the sugars.

Transfer sugar to a food processor and pulverize until fine. Store in an airtight container until ready to caramelize.

Blot tops of custards dry with a paper towel. Sprinkle 1-2 T sugar mixture over each custard. Use a torch to melt the sugar by waving the flame 4-8 inches from the surface until caramelized.
