Forget the "same old, same old" and tempt those taste buds with a new (really an old) flavor for a change. They'll love it, and the proof will be in the pudding bowl...'cause it'll be empty!
What You'll Need
- 1/2 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 2 1/2 cup milk
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
What to Do
- In a medium-sized saucepan, combine brown sugar, butter, and salt over medium heat. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, or until butter melts and sugar begins to caramelize, stirring constantly; remove from heat.
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine cornstarch and milk, then whisk into brown sugar mixture. Cook over medium heat 5 to 6 minutes, or until mixture has thickened, whisking constantly. Remove from heat.
- Whisk in vanilla and place in a serving bowl or individual serving dishes and chill for at least 2 hours; serve or cover and chill until ready to serve.
Notes
For extra crunch, we like to serve this topped with some chopped-up chocolate-covered toffee candy bars. Of course, you should use your favorites.
