Instructions
- 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C. Roll out the puff pastry and cut into a 20x25cm rectangle.
- 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, salt, and 100ml of water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves.
Tip: Don't let the sugar boil.
- 3
Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the sugar mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the caramel turns a deep amber color.
Tip: Be careful, as the caramel will bubble up vigorously.
- 4
Remove the caramel from the heat and slowly pour in the unsalted caramel sauce, whisking constantly.
Tip: This will help prevent the caramel from seizing up.
- 5
Whisk in the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Let the mixture cool slightly, then whisk in the egg yolks.
Tip: Make sure the mixture is warm, but not hot.
- 6
Pour the caramel cream mixture into a clean bowl and let it cool to room temperature.

To assemble the tart, roll out the puff pastry to a thickness of 3mm. Place the pastry into a 20cm tart pan with a removable bottom.
Tip: Press the pastry into the corners of the pan.
- 8
Pour the cooled caramel cream mixture into the pastry-lined tart pan.
Tip: Smooth the top with an offset spatula.
- 9
Bake the tart for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is set.
Tip: Keep an eye on the tart, as the baking time may vary.
