Making Creme Brulee from scratch is not hard! Baking it in a water bath (called bain-marie) might sound intimidating but it really is easier to do than you think. The first step is heating the cream. The crème brûlée should be set, but still a little jiggly in the middle. There may be no dessert more magical than crème brûlée.
