Preparation
- In a medium sized saucepan, whisk together the sugar and the 5 egg yolks until fully combined, with the heat turned off. Whisk in the heavy cream, salt, and vanilla until fully combined.
- Turn on the heat to medium low and continuously stir until the mixture thickens up and spreads slowly when a spoon is dragged through it, about 10 minutes. The mixture should not simmer, but just get the occasional bubble.
- Add in the chocolate chips, turn off the heat, and whisk until chocolate has fully melted.
- Pour the mixture through a sieve to ensure smoothness, then divide into 8 ramekins.
- Refrigerate, uncovered, for 2 hours or until set.
- Layer 1 tablespoon of salted caramel onto each of the budinos and finish with some flaky sea salt to garnish. Top with whipped cream.
- Enjoy!
