Ingredients
Enjoy our delicious Salted Caramel Pudding!
Ingredients
- 48 Werther's Original Chewy Caramels, unwrapped
- 2 tablespoons water
- ⅓ cup heavy cream
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 cups whole milk, divided
- ¼ cup cornstarch
- 5 large egg yolks
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- Chocolate fudge sauce, for topping
- Flakey salt for garnish
Instructions
-
Combine caramels and water in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave mixture in 30-second increments, stirring between each increment, until caramels begin to melt, about 1 to 1 ½ minutes. Add cream and salt, and continue to stir until mixture is smooth, about 1 minute. Set aside.
-
Whisk ½ cup milk, cornstarch, and egg yolks together in a medium saucepan, off heat, until smooth. Whisk in remaining milk and caramel sauce until combined. Simmer over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the caramel mixture thickens and comes to a boil, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and whisk in butter and vanilla. Strain caramel mixture into a pitcher or measuring cup with a spout.
-
Pour ½ cup of the caramel mixture into heat-proof glasses. Cover and refrigerate until set, about 2 hours. Top each chilled pudding with 2 tablespoons of chocolate fudge sauce. Garnish with flakey salt, and serve.
