Skip the long lines at your coffee shop and make a Caramel Brûlée Latte at home! A double shot of espresso combined with homemade caramel brûlée sauce and steamed milk is topped with whipped cream, extra caramel sauce and crushed hard caramel candies.Yields 1 drink but can easily be doubled to serve more.
Add a generous tablespoon of caramel brûlée sauce in the bottom of a mug.
Brew 2 strong shots of espresso or about 6 ounces into the mug. Strong coffee can also be used. Stir to combine.
Meanwhile pour half & half, whole milk or other milk that steams and froths well into a steamer/frother.My Keurig (linked above) does both, heating and frothing. Alternatively you can use a frothing whisk to warm milk, whipping it until foamy.
Pour in the warm frothed milk.
Top with whipped cream, extra caramel brûlée sauce and crushed hard caramel candies. I like to use Werther’s Original Candies. (Simply add to a resealable bag and use the flat side of a meat tenderizer to crush.)
Serve immediately!
