Spiced Crème Catalan
This fancy custard will do many duties throughout desserts you may be wanting to try in the future from this site. It is perfectly delish on its own!
The Spanish cousin of crème brûlée, Spiced Crème Catalan can be either piped when completely cold, or set directly in smaller ramekins or glasses. You should give it a whirl with Passionfruit Broth and Tropical Fruit Salad. It is really just a custard dressed up to go out for the evening. With or without your accompaniments, the dessert is quite elegant and yet so easy to make!
