Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup heavy cream (for caramel)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream (for whipped topping)
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine sugar and water over medium heat, stirring until dissolved. Bring to a boil without stirring for about 4-5 minutes until deep amber. Remove from heat, then stir in butter and salt. Gradually whisk in heavy cream and set aside to cool.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk egg yolks. Slowly add warm caramel while whisking continuously to temper the eggs. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat until slightly thickened.
  3. Cool the caramel custard to room temperature before refrigerating for at least an hour.
  4. Beat heavy cream with powdered sugar and salt until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into the chilled caramel mixture until combined.
  5. Spoon into serving dishes and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
