Tasted great! Pretty easy to follow recipe. I wasn't sure if the water bath should be preheated. Another site said use boiling water so I did. Seemed to work well. Only my second time making creme brulee so I don't pretend to be an expert. They came out pretty well. The Bailey's flavor was on the subtle side. I will try increasing it by 50% next time. Also in some of mine I took Newman-Os without the filling and crushed them up and layered them on the bottom. Tasted pretty good. I bought a big blow torch at a hardware store for $25 including propane. Seems better than the small kitchen torch I used to have. Just don't turn it upside down while using.
