And the caramel is made with brown sugar for a deeper and richer caramel taste. It’s a delicious fusion of two beloved desserts.
Ingredients:
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup water
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
Instructions:
In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1/4 cup of water. Cook over medium heat, swirling the pan occasionally until the sugar dissolves and turns into a golden caramel color.
Quickly pour the caramel into a 9-inch round cake pan, swirling it around to evenly coat the bottom of the pan. Set aside to cool.
In a separate saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, vanilla extract, and 1/4 tsp of salt. Slowly pour in the hot cream mixture, whisking continuously to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
Once well combined, pour the custard mixture over the cooled caramel in the cake pan.
Place the cake pan in a larger baking dish and fill the larger dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the cake pan.
Bake at 350°F for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
To serve, run a knife around the edge of the pan and invert the crème caramel onto a serving plate. The caramel sauce will beautifully drizzle over the custard.
This Italian crème caramel recipe is perfect for any occasion. The combination of creamy custard and sweet caramel is simply irresistible. Plus, it's easy to make and requires only a few ingredients. Impress your family and friends with this decadent dessert and let them experience the taste of Italy in every bite. Buon Appetito!
