How To Make Salted Caramel Pudding Parfaits
INGREDIENTS –
- rice pudding – homemade or storebought
- salted caramel sauce – homemade or storebought (my favorite recipe is below!)
- fresh blueberries
VARIATIONS –
- Swap the rice pudding for vanilla pudding or tapioca.
- Swap the blueberries for chocolate chips, graham cracker crumbs, Oreo crumbs, or vanilla wafers.
DIRECTIONS –
In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, cook the sugar until it melts and becomes an amber color. You can swirl the pan as needed, but do not stir it.
Add the butter and salt and whisk to combine until you see the butter melt and begin to bubble.
Add the heavy whipping cream to the sugar mixture and stir until smooth.
Let the caramel cool slightly and then place in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to use. (This stuff is so good, I can eat it with a spoon!)
ASSEMBLE YOUR PARFAIT –
- Grab 8 parfait glasses or small mason jars and add a layer of rice pudding.
- Add a layer of blueberries.
- Drizzle the salted caramel sauce over the top.
… and that’s it!
