Ingredients

• ✓ egg yolk
• active dry yeast
• water
• honey
• salt
• egg
• all-purpose flour

Instructions

1. 1 Gather the ingredients.
2. 2 Place water and yeast in a large bowl; let the mixture stand until a creamy layer forms on top, about 10 minutes. Stir in honey and salt until dissolved, and add beaten eggs.
3. 3 Mix in flour, a cupful at a time, until dough is sticky. Sprinkle dough with flour, and knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
4. 4 Form dough into a compact round shape, and place in an oiled bowl. Turn dough over several times in the bowl to oil the surface of the dough, cover the bowl with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm area until doubled in size, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
5. 5 Punch down dough, and cut into 3 equal-sized pieces.
6. 6 Working on a floured surface, roll small dough pieces into ropes about the thickness of your thumb and about 12 inches long. Ropes should be fatter in the middle and thinner at the ends.
7. 7 Pinch 3 ropes together at the top and braid them. Starting with the strand to the right, move it to the left over the middle strand (that strand becomes the new middle strand.)
8. 8 Take the strand farthest to the left, and move it over the new middle strand.
9. 9 Continue braiding, alternating sides each time, until the loaf is braided, and pinch the ends together and fold them underneath for a neat look.
10. 10 Place braided loaf on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and brush the top with beaten egg yolk. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
11. 11 Bake challah in the preheated oven until the top browns to a rich golden color and the loaf sounds hollow when you tap it with a spoon, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool on a wire rack before slicing.

4. 4 Bake in the preheated oven until custard is set but slightly jiggly in the center when shaken, about 50 minutes. Remove ramekins from hot water and chill in the refrigerator until cold, at least 2 hours.
5. 5 Sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar evenly over the top of each dessert. Use a kitchen torch to melt and lightly toast sugar topping until brown and bubbly, about 30 seconds. Let sugar topping cool to harden before serving.

Ingredients

• ✓ egg yolk
• white sugar
• vanilla extract
• heavy cream
• white sugar
• brown sugar

Instructions

1. 1 Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Move an oven rack to the lowest position.
2. 2 Whisk egg yolks, 1/4 white sugar, and vanilla together in a heatproof bowl until smooth. Bring cream just to a simmer in a saucepan over medium-low heat; gradually whisk hot cream into egg yolk mixture (a little at a time to prevent the mixture from scrambling), whisking continuously until combined.
3. 3 Bring a couple of inches of water to a simmer in a saucepan over medium-low heat; set the bowl with cream mixture over the saucepan to form a double boiler. Cook, gently stirring with a wooden spoon, until cream mixture thickens enough to easily coat the back of the spoon.
4. 4 Pour hot cream into a heat-proof baking dish or individual ramekins set on a rimmed baking sheet. Place in the preheated oven; bake until mixture sets but has a slight jiggle, about 20 to 30 minutes.
5. 5 Chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
6. 6 To make the topping: Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Combine 2 tablespoons white sugar and brown sugar in a small bowl; sprinkle evenly over cold crème brûlée.
7. 7 Heat under the preheated broiler until sugar melts and browns, 2 to 3 minutes; return immediately to the refrigerator and chill until sugar is set, about 15 minutes.

Ingredients

• ✓ egg yolk
• heavy cream
• white sugar
• vanilla extract
• irish cream liqueur
• sugar

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Place 6 ramekins on a towel set in a roasting pan at least 3 inches deep.
2. 2 Stir together cream and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, and cook until very hot, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Whisk together egg yolks, vanilla, and Irish cream until combined. Slowly add 1/3 of the hot cream, whisking it in 2 tablespoons at a time until incorporated. Once you have incorporated 1/3 of the cream, you can stir in the remaining hot cream without fear of the mixture curdling.
3. 3 Pour custard into the ramekins, then fill roasting pan with boiling hot water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake in preheated oven until set, 50 to 60 minutes.
4. 4 Once the custard has set, place ramekins on a wire rack, and allow to cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. Cover, and refrigerate until cold, about 4 hours. Custards may remain refrigerated until ready to serve.
5. 5 Unwrap the custards, and sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of superfine sugar onto each. Gently shake the custards so the sugar coats the entire top surface, then tip the custards to a 45-degree angle and shake off excess sugar.
6. 6 Using a small hand torch, melt the sugar by making short passes over top of the custards with the flame not quite touching. Continue melting the sugar until it turns deep brown. Once the sugar has melted and turned to caramel, the cold custard underneath will harden the sugar into a crispy crust. Serve immediately. Alternatively, the sugar-dusted custards may be browned underneath the broiler in the oven.

Ingredients

• ✓ egg yolk
• heavy cream
• white sugar
• vanilla extract
• salt
• white sugar

Instructions

1. 1 Place a trivet in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot); add 1 cup water.
2. 2 Heat heavy cream in the microwave until very hot, but not boiling, about 45 seconds.
3. 3 Whisk egg yolks, 2 1/2 tablespoons sugar, vanilla, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of the warm cream and whisk quickly. Slowly add in the remaining cream, stirring well. Pour the mixture into three 6-ounce ramekins.
4. 4 Cover ramekins with foil and place on the trivet, stacking if necessary. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 8 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
5. 5 Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Check custard; it should jiggle around the edges but not be liquid; it will set up more as it cools. Let cool to room temperature, 15 to 30 minutes. Refrigerate for 4 hours.
6. 6 Top each custard with 1 teaspoon sugar. Heat sugar with a kitchen torch until caramelized, about 30 seconds. Serve immediately.
