I had NO problem whatsoever w/ making the custard, it set up beautifully and tasted wonderful. The only change I made, I omitted the raspberries, and added a teaspoon of pure vanilla extract, instead of the brown sugar I used turbinado sugar.

This was my first try at making Creme Brulee and it turned out terrible! It didn't set at all and I chilled it for 24 hours. Most recipes call for it to be baked in the oven...but this turned out terrible!

There is no way in the world that this recipe would serve 8. I have a set of professional-grade creme brulee ramekins, and I was barely able to fill 4 of them. Also, the custard did not set up until I added a 5th egg yolk. Tastes fine now, but 4 of the 8 people I invited for dinner will not be having dessert. Good think I made shortbread!

I didn't try the broiling, and I had some trouble with the texture (probably because I lacked an electric mixer and couldn't mix the egg yolks and sugar well enough), but it came out pretty well, and was definitely easy. I only made a two-person serving, and added about a 1/4-tsp of vanilla extract.

Not worth the effort – Custard did not ever set. Favor was great (added a touch of vanilla bean), and ease of preparation was great, but overall was very disappointed in this recipe.

It tastes wonderful, but the broiler melted the chilled, molded creme into a liquid. Must use kitchen torch to avoid liquifying creme. I didn't broil the second one, and just served cold with brown sugar and raspberries. It was tasty too!

Very disappointed. I wish I had read the reviews first as the custard did not set for us either and was used for a school project.

We refrigerated it for over 24 hours but it never set. I had to throw the whole thing away.

I was really disappointed, the custard never set up over night. Ended up dumping it out after 18 hours of chill time. Ended up making another recipe that is baked and that worked out quite nicely.
