Here’s a quick and easy recipe to make a delicious cream caramel pudding in just 5 minutes:
Ingredients:
For the caramel:
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons water
For the pudding:
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Start by making the caramel. In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water over medium heat. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
- Allow the mixture to cook, without stirring, until it turns a deep golden brown color, about 5 minutes. Swirl the pan occasionally to ensure even cooking. Be careful not to let it burn.
- Once the caramel reaches the desired color, immediately pour it into your serving dish or individual ramekins. Swirl the dish to evenly coat the bottom with caramel. Set aside to cool and harden.
- In a separate saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it just starts to simmer.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar and cornstarch. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and whisk until smooth and well combined.
- Slowly pour the hot milk into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent curdling.
- Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the pudding thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 2-3 minutes.
- Remove the pudding from the heat and immediately pour it over the caramel in the serving dish or ramekins.
- Allow the pudding to cool slightly before serving, or refrigerate until completely chilled.
- To serve, run a knife around the edge of the dish to loosen the pudding. Place a plate upside down over the dish, then quickly flip it over to release the pudding onto the plate, allowing the caramel to drizzle over the top.
- Serve the cream caramel pudding chilled, and enjoy!
