It turns out that Creme Brulee is probably the easiest, fanciest dessert you can make! Amber and I decided to have a romantic Valentine's Day dinner in my courtyard last night instead of making our husbands to take us out. We had a lot of fun and dinner and of course dessert was delicious! At first when I came up with the idea of making Creme Brulee I was a little intimidated, but once I started I couldn't believe how easy it was! The guys were really impressed with it and Jack even got to toast the sugar with his blow torch!
