Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.
¾ cup packed dark brown sugar
½ tsp fine salt
2 cups whole milk
Chef's tip
Use plain, unsweetened soy milk, measured 1:1. It's one of the most reliable milk swaps and works in sauces, custards, and baked goods. For hot or acidic drinks, a barista-style soy milk resists curdling.
½ cup heavy cream
Chef's tip
Use unsweetened dairy-free heavy cream in cooked sauces, soups, and ganache. For whipped uses, choose a product labeled whippable.
3 tbsp cornstarch
4 large egg yolks
1 tsp vanilla extract

For serving

lightly sweetened whipped cream, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the dark brown sugar and salt, and stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture bubbles vigorously and smells deeply caramelized, about 3–4 minutes. The sugar will look grainy at first, then melt into a glossy, dark amber paste.
2
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the whole milk, heavy cream, cornstarch, and egg yolks until smooth and no cornstarch lumps remain.
