Ingredients:
- 1 liter whole milk
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Whipped cream, for serving
- Caramel sauce, for drizzling
Instructions:
- Make the Caramel:
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt the sugar over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- Once the sugar has melted and turned a deep amber color, carefully add the butter and stir until combined.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Heat the Milk:
- In a separate saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it’s hot but not boiling.
- Combine the Caramel and Milk:
- Slowly pour the hot milk into the caramel, whisking constantly to prevent the caramel from seizing.
- Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
- Stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
- Chill and Serve:
- Pour the mixture into individual bowls or a large serving dish.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until completely chilled.
- Before serving, top with whipped cream and drizzle with caramel sauce.
Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of whole milk.
- To prevent the caramel from crystallizing, make sure the saucepan and utensils are dry before starting.
- For a more intense caramel flavor, add a pinch of baking soda to the melted sugar.
Enjoy this delightful dessert!
