Ingredients

• 1 cup of sugar (for caramel)
• 1 cup of heavy cream
• 1 cup of milk
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• 4 large eggs
• 1/2 cup of sweetened condensed milk
• 1/2 cup of crushed nuts for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the sugar until it turns into a golden caramel. Pour it immediately into the bottom of a dessert dish and set it aside to cool.
2. In another bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, milk, and vanilla extract until combined.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing gently after each addition. Then incorporate the sweetened condensed milk.
4. Pour the mixture over the hardened caramel in the dessert dish.
5. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 45 minutes or until the center is set.
6. Allow the dessert to cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
7. Garnish with crushed nuts if desired, and serve chilled.
