So, what’s the perfect use for heavy cream of high quality? Salted Caramel. That’s what, clearly! Nothing more decadent, delicious, more melting than homemade caramel in your mouth, and this tart brings you to the next level by layering rich buttery walnuts, fragrant vanilla paste, and salty sea salt flavors. Sitting on a crumbly, tender tart crust that is simply made in the food processor, everything comes together.

In the first place, there are so few ingredients: sugar, butter, and Hood Cream, plus a pinch of salt and some vanilla.
