I LOVE LOVE LOVE creme burlee. I think it's the heavy cream, egg yollk and sugar that make it so divine.

I would love to find a recipe that is tastes just as creamy and rich as creme burlee but is less than 200 calories for a serving. There is this recipe floating around but it's still nearly 300kcals!

2 cups 2% reduced-fat milk $
3/4 cup nonfat dry milk
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
1/2 cup sugar, divided $
4 large egg yolks $
Dash of salt
