Can you make this in the microwave?

I don't believe so. The cooking and stirring on the stove is what will thicken and smooth. I think if you do it in the microwave, it will be lumpy.

Do you have to have the butane torch for this?

The carmelzing sugar is in the package and you can do it under the broiler, or with a torch. Watch carefully if you do it under the broiler.... Browns very fast.

do you caramelize sugar before cooling in refrig?

Here are Chef Alton Brown's instructions. Bon appetite! Remove the ramekins from the roasting pan and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 3 days. Remove the creme brulee from the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes prior to browning the sugar on top. Divide the remaining 1/2 cup vanilla sugar equally among the 6 dishes and spread evenly on top. Using a torch, melt the sugar and form a crispy top. Allow the creme brulee to sit for at least 5 minutes before serving.

Quick dessert that tastes great!

These are easy to make and provide an excellent dessert with little effort. When you want something a little different, not overly sweet and easy to make. YUM!

Dr. Oetker, Creme Brulee Mix, perfect dessert everytime. Easy peasy to make.

Dr. Oetker, Creme Brulee Mix, 4 servings, packages have disappeared from our grocery store shelves. These little boxes are a gem when you want to up your game and surprise your family with an extra special dessert. So easy to follow instructions, and they turn out perfect every time. Also, a fabulous dessert when entertaining guests. Creamy divine brulee mixed with a great crackle sugar topping. Delivery was efficient. Can't wait to surprise my family. Ordered mix boxes on Amazon.
