  • About

This creamy dessert features an easy stove top caramel sauce blended with a custard and baked. Top each serving with a generous dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon, if you like.

Ingredients

  • Sugar, 1 cup
  • Heavy cream, 1½ cups
  • Milk, 1½

Method

In a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the sugar with ⅓ cup water. Cover and bring to a boil. Uncover the pan and cook until the sugar turns golden amber in color and forms a caramel, 8–12 minutes. Be careful, as the caramel is very hot.
