Ingredients for Butterscotch Budino

Method

Directions for Making Butterscotch Budino

  1. 1

    Make the Butterscotch Base

    In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar and cook for about 2 minutes until bubbling. Add the heavy cream, whole milk, and sea salt, and whisk until smooth.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, cornstarch, and vanilla extract until well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine and Cook

    Gradually pour the warm butterscotch mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs. Return the combined mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, whisking constantly until it thickens and comes to a gentle boil (about 5-7 minutes).

  4. 4

    Chill the Budino

    Remove from heat, and pour the budino into individual serving cups or ramekins. Let it cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.

  5. 5

    Serve

    To serve, top each budino with a dollop of whipped cream and enjoy!
