Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup caramel sauce, plus extra for drizzling
• 1/4 cup chopped pistachios
• 1 cup whipped cream, for topping

How to Make Caramel Pudding Cakes with Whipped Cream

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin or individual ramekins with cooking spray.
2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar until smooth.
3. Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and heavy cream to the butter mixture, mixing until well combined.
4. In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
5. Stir in the 1/2 cup of caramel sauce until evenly distributed.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared muffin tin or ramekins, filling each about 3/4 full.
7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
9. Once cooled, top each pudding cake with a generous dollop of whipped cream, a drizzle of caramel sauce, and a sprinkle of chopped pistachios.
10. Serve immediately and enjoy your decadent treat!

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure your butter is fully melted but not hot when mixing with sugar to prevent cooking the eggs.
• Use fresh, high-quality caramel sauce for the richest flavor.
• If using ramekins, place them in a baking dish filled with water for even cooking.

Easy Variations

• Substitute chopped nuts with toasted coconut for a tropical twist.
• Add a pinch of sea salt to the caramel sauce for a salted caramel version.
• Use chocolate whipped cream instead of regular for an extra indulgent touch.

What to Serve With It

• Fresh berries for a fruity contrast
• A scoop of vanilla or coffee ice cream
• Espresso or dark roast coffee to enhance the dessert’s richness
• A drizzle of chocolate sauce for added decadence

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, warm in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds or until just heated through.
