Description

Strawberry Brûlée adds a layer of sliced strawberries to the bottom of brûléed filling for a super fun and easy twist on the classic French dessert. It’s a light, delicious recipe that’s been in my family for years!


Ingredients

  • 8 oz (226g) cream cheese, room temperature
  • 6 tbsp (78g) granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups (348g) sour cream, room temperature
  • 1 egg, room temperature
  • 1 lb strawberries, washed
  • Additional 2 tbsp (26g) granulated sugar, for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add sour cream and egg to cream cheese mixture and mix until smooth.
  4. Set aside at least 6 strawberries for topping, then chop remaining strawberries. You need about 1 1/2 cups chopped berries.
  5. Divide chopped strawberries between ramekins, spreading them evenly in the bottom of each.
  6. Divide batter evenly between ramekins.
  7. Place ramekins on rimmed baking sheet and place on center rack, then fill about halfway with warm water.
  8. Bake for 25 minutes, then turn off the oven. Leave ramekins in oven to slowly cool with door closed for 10 minutes.
  9. Crack the door of the oven and continue cooling in the oven for 10 more minutes. Then remove ramekins from oven and refrigerate.
  10. Once cooled and ready to serve, sprinkle about 1 tsp of white granulated sugar on top of each ramekin. Use kitchen blow torch to gently cook and brown the sugar, then serve. These can be served warm or cold, based on preference.
