- Total Time: 50 minutes
- Yield: 9 1x
Description
Silky vanilla cream nestled between layers of golden caramel creates a divine French dessert. Sweet indulgence melts effortlessly on palates, promising pure culinary bliss for passionate dessert enthusiasts.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (225 g / 8 oz) unsalted butter
- 1 cup (200 g / 7 oz) granulated sugar
- 1 cup (220 g / 7.75 oz) packed brown sugar
- 1 cup (240 ml / 8 fl oz) light corn syrup
- 1 cup (240 ml / 8 fl oz) heavy cream
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ cup (60 ml / 2 fl oz) heavy cream
- ¼ cup (50 g / 1.75 oz) granulated sugar
- 2 tbsps (30 g / 1 oz) unsalted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup (125 g / 4.4 oz) powdered sugar, sifted
Instructions
- Caramel Base: Combine cream, sugar, and butter in a saucepan, heating over medium flame while continuously stirring until ingredients meld into a glossy, homogeneous liquid with butter fully incorporated and sugar completely dissolved.
- Flavor Infusion: Remove from heat and gently stir vanilla extract into the caramel, ensuring even distribution and a rich aromatic profile throughout the mixture.
- Texture Development: Gradually whisk powdered sugar into the warm caramel, blending methodically to eliminate potential lumps and create a smooth, velvety cream with consistent texture and luxurious mouthfeel.
- Cooling and Setting: Allow the vanilla cream caramel to rest at room temperature, intermittently stirring to prevent surface hardening and promote even cooling, transforming the liquid into a decadent, spreadable confection with perfect consistency for filling pastries or drizzling over desserts.
Notes
- Prevent Sugar Crystallization: Stir constantly while heating to ensure smooth caramel and avoid grainy texture, which can ruin the silky consistency of the sauce.
- Temperature Control Matters: Use medium heat to allow gradual melting and prevent burning, which can create bitter flavors and compromise the delicate caramel profile.
- Whisk with Purpose: Incorporate powdered sugar slowly and whisk vigorously to eliminate potential lumps, creating a perfectly smooth and luxurious cream filling.
- Cooling Technique: Stir periodically during cooling to maintain an even texture and prevent skin formation on the surface of the vanilla cream caramel.
