A true childhood dessert... Who hasn't eaten crème caramel in a restaurant or at home? Inexpensive and simple to prepare, it can be found in many restaurants. I've used my Maldon salted butter caramel to garnish the base, but of course you can also make your own.

Preparation

Heat the milk with the vanilla to 80°C and leave to infuse for 10 minutes.

Beat in sugar, eggs and egg yolks. Whisk until the mixture becomes white and frothy.

Drizzle the vanilla milk (35°C) over the mixture and stir gently.

(You can grate a little Tonka bean to give the creams a light caramel flavor).

Leave to stand for 10 minutes (the bubbles on top will disappear).

Pour salted butter caramel into the bottom of the ramekins.

Place the ramekins in a baking tray lined with baking paper, then place the tray in the oven.

Fill the bottom with lukewarm water.

Bake in a bain-marie at 140° for about 1 hour. 

The cream is well done when it is slightly trembling. Dip a knife in it to be sure; if the blade comes out clean and hot, the creams are done. Place in the fridge.
