LIME CREME BRULEE BARS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8-inch square baking dish with foil, overhanging the edges by an inch.
- For the crust: Combine the butter, sugar and lime zest in the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on high until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides and add the flour and salt. Mix on low speed until the dough comes together (it should be in big, loose crumbles, not dusty). Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the foil-lined pan. Bake until light golden and set, 15 to 18 minutes. Cool completely on a rack.
- For the filling: Combine the whole egg and yolks, lime zest and juice and sweetened condensed milk in a medium bowl and whisk until very smooth. Pour into the crust and bake until completely set, 18 to 20 minutes. Cool completely on a rack, then refrigerate until chilled and very set, at least 3 hours.
- For the topping: Preheat the broiler.
- Remove the bar in one piece using the foil as handles (loosen the corners with a paring knife, if needed). Cut into 16 squares and place on a foil-lined baking sheet, spaced about an inch apart. Sprinkle the tops evenly with the sugar. Broil until the sugar is caramelized and crisp, 1 to 2 minutes, depending on your broiler. Let cool a few minutes before transferring to a serving tray. Garnish with lime quarters and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Over a double boiler, whisk 3 egg yolks and sugar to a thick, ribbon-like texture. In a separate pot, combine the heavy cream and split vanilla bean, and bring to a boil. Temper the egg yolk mixture into the cream, by whisking a little of the hot cream into the eggs, while constantly whisking, and then whisk the yolk mixture back into the hot cream. Return to the heat and, while whisking continually, finish cooking to a custard stage, approximately 1 or 2 minutes.
- For the second part of the creme brulee, whisk the remaining 3 egg yolks for 1 minute. Add the condensed milk and whisk for another minute. Add the key lime juice gradually and whisk for 1 minute. Combine the creme brulee filling with the key lime filling and chill in the refrigerator until needed.
- To make the crust, roll out a sheet of puff pastry very thin, 20 by 10-inches. Cut 6 (4-inch diameter) circles out of the puff pastry to line 6 (3-inch) tart pans. Let the dough rest for 30 minutes in the refrigerator. Line the pastry rings with the pastry dough and trim the excess dough flush to the edge of the ring. Place a piece of parchment paper on each tart shell and fill with beans and bake until golden, about 10 minutes. The shells should be very thin and even.
- To assemble, fill the shells with the key lime filling and level the tops with a spatula. Dust the tops of the desserts with sugar and using a torch caramelize the tops. Place the desserts on a plate and serve with fruit puree, if desired.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Combine egg yolks and sugar in a mixing bowl. Heat heavy cream and Key Lime Curd & Tart Filling in medium saucepan. Stir constantly until it comes to a slow boil - remove from heat. Temper egg mixture with 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Whisk mixture into heated cream mixture. Return to heat and cook until mixture thickens - stirring continuously. Mixture should coat the back of a spoon. Fill ramekins almost to the top. Place ramekins in a baking pan/dish. Fill pan/dish with hot tap water so that it fills about 1/2 way up the side of ramekins. Bake creme brulees for about 25-35 minutes. Remove ramekins from oven and place in ice bath to immediately cool. Once slightly cooled, place in refrigerator overnight. To serve, sprinkle top with sugar and place under broiler to caramelize.

- Remove from heat.
- Combine lime juice, egg yolks, and egg in a medium bowl, stirring well with a whisk.
- Gradually add the hot milk mixture to egg mixture, stirring constantly with a whisk.
- Divide the mixture evenly among 6 (4-ounce) ramekins or custard cups.
- Place ramekins in a 13 x 9-inch baking pan, and add hot water to pan to a depth of 1 inch.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until center barely moves when the ramekin is touched.
- Remove ramekins from pan, and cool completely on a wire rack.
- Cover and chill 4 hours to overnight.
- Carefully sift 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar over each custard.
- Holding a kitchen blowtorch about 2 inches from the top of each custard, heat the sugar, moving the torch back and forth, until the sugar is completely melted and caramelized (about 1 minute).
- ***You can make the sugar topping on the stovetop instead. Place 1/4 cup sugar and 1 tablespoon water in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat 5 to 8 minutes or until mixture is golden. Don't stir. Immediately pour the sugar mixture evenly over the cold custards, spreading to form a thin layer on top.
- Serve the custards immediately.
