S'mores Crème Brûlée

2 cups heavy cream
2/3 cup semisweet or milk chocolate chips
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
6 large egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 cup mini marshmallows

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Place 6 ramekins in a baking dish. Fill the baking dish with hot water, until it comes halfway up the sides of the ramekins.

Heat cream, chocolate and sugar, in a large saucepan, over medium heat, whisking frequently, until chocolate is melted. Whisk yolks and vanilla together in a medium mixing bowl until combined. Gradually whisk hot cream into eggs, until combined.

Divide mixture into ramekins. Bake for 50-55 minutes or until custard barely wobbles. Remove from oven, remove ramekins from water and cool five minutes.

Preheat oven broiler. Sprinkle tops of custards evenly with graham cracker crumbs, followed by mini marshmallows. Broil custards a few seconds until marshmallows brown. Cool for 30 minutes before placing in the refrigerator until chilled completely - about 1-2 hours.

Makes 6 servings

  2. Oh forgot to mention we're having friends over New Years Eve and guess what they are all requesting for dinner?? It's your Pumpernickel Pastrami Panini with Rosemary-Ale jus!! I've made that 15-20 times as it is always a big hit when friends come over.

  3. What is it about s'mores flavored desserts? I've never seen anything graham-cracker-chocolate-marshmallow related that didn't come out wonderfully.

    Looks like your Christmas was a blast. It's always great to get new kitchen toys (I got a new food mill and and new saute pan myself).

  13. OMG, I used to love Chicken in a Biskit crackers. My cousins that live in Missouri introduced them to me years ago. Maybe it's a Missouri thing? :)

    How exciting Eric bought you a light reflector kit, but really Emily, could your photos possibly get any better? I brag about your photos to people all the time. They're absolutely stunning!

  15. I think this year I haven't even noticed it, Christmas I mean... Yours does sound like fun, especially the sausage ball part. Of course your sister's apron was the highlight for me. Love the bruléé! Oh I can't wait to see the pictures with the new toy you got ;)!

  18. Ooh, that smores brulee does look good and I've never really liked plain creme brulee. Chocolate must be the key! And the mallows and graham don't hurt either!

    Fun Christmas recap! We were totally snowed in for days with the blizzard we had here!

    Happy New Year, Emily!

  20. That does look like a fantastic Christmas. Games, cigars, a hot tub and food... you really dont need anything more than that :)

    And I don't even know what a reflector camera thing is... but I'm sure your pics will rock even better with it.

    Enjoy the rest of the year, I hope you aren't working on the 31st :)

  21. That looks sooooo yummy!

    I also wanted to let you know that I made your pie crust this year for the traditional Pecan Pie... (First time I ever deviated from my Grandma's pie crust recipe.) It was AWESOME!

    Happy New Year!

    Thanks for sharing this with us!

  27. I love smores-flavored desserts! I never imagined it as a creme brulee, but I guess it was inevitable, because, you know, mini-marshmallows look so cute when they're brule-ed!

    Happy New Year!

  29. Thanks everyone!

    Curt, no I did not make the sausage balls. Aunt Pattie did, so I don't know her secret recipe.
    Wow! I'm flattered that everyone likes the sandwich! Thank you so much!

    MM, :D

    Morethanlettuce, thank you! Wow! That's really nice. Though it's not true.

    Aw, Heather. Thanks. Maybe it is a Missouri thing!

    Ktbwood, thank you! You're very sweet.

    Sheila, I'm glad you liked the crust recipe.

  33. OH MY! When I saw this pop up I immediately thought to myself "oh look Emily has gone and given me a great Christmas present!" This looks amazing (as did your Christmas!). I am SOOOOOO wanting to make this ASAP!!! You are my hero! ;o)

  34. This is such a cute idea! Caramelized marshmallows on top is so much better than sugar shards! Happy New Year!

    ps: I've adored those Mexican aprons since I was a little girl - my grandmother in Mexico has them in like every single color imaginable!
