Sea Salt Caramel Budino
- 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 2 egg yolks
- 2 cups milk
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract, divided
- 1/2 cup crushed shortbread cookies (such as Lorna Doone(R))
- 1 cup salted caramel sauce (such as Smucker's(R) Simple DelightTM), divided
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon flaky sea salt (such as Maldon(R))
- Mix together brown sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a saucepan.
- Whisk together egg yolks and milk in a small bowl; gradually whisk into sugar mixture. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until mixture thickens and boils, about 6 minutes. Boil, stirring, for 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Pour into another bowl; chill pudding for 20 minutes.
- Divide crushed cookies evenly among 6 half-pint Mason jars or parfait glasses. Layer 1/4 cup pudding, 1 tablespoon caramel sauce, and 1/4 cup additional pudding into each jar. Chill for 30 minutes or up to 1 day.
- Beat together cream, white sugar, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract with an electric mixer in a chilled bowl until soft peaks form. Cover and chill.
- Just before serving, top each jar generously with whipped cream, drizzle with remaining caramel sauce, and sprinkle with sea salt.
