- 4 large Eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup Caramel sauce (Quantity estimated (not specified in original recipe))
Instructions
- 1In a saucepan, melt the sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly until it turns a light brown color. Be careful not to burn it.
- 2Add the milk to the melted sugar and stir to combine. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Add the milk and sugar mixture, salt, and vanilla extract to the eggs and whisk until well combined.

Bake in a preheated oven at 325°F (160°C) for 30 minutes, or until the custard is set but still slightly wobbly in the center.
