When I crave something sweet, my mind doesn’t usually wander over to pudding.  The pre-packaged shelf-stable stuff just seems so elementary (school).  The kids like it fine.  It’s just not for me.

But, when you say toffee, I’m in. Every time.  So when I was going through my old recipe box and came across a vanilla bean pudding that I used to make, I thought – it’d be really damn good with caramel.  Or chocolate.  Or both.  Yes.  Let’s do that.

If you like creme brûlée but don’t feel like busting out the blow torch, get the same effect with this smooth toffee pudding recipe and add some crunch by topping it with crushed toffee candy.  Win!

Just keep stirring. The sugar hasn’t dissolved all the way in this pic!

In a small heavy duty saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.  Add the brown sugar and stir.  Stir constantly and continue to cook until the sugar has completely dissolved and the mixture is a smooth caramel.  Remove it from heat and allow it to cool.
