Ingredients
Scale
Milk Mixture
- ½ cup whole milk (or milk of choice)
- 3 tbsp caramel syrup
Coffee
- 2 espresso shots (or 8 oz hot coffee)
Toppings
- Whipped cream
- Toffee bits
Instructions
- Heat Milk and Caramel: Add your milk and caramel syrup to a small saucepan and heat over medium heat until it just starts to foam. Remove from heat and whisk vigorously until the mixture becomes slightly frothy.
- Brew Coffee: Brew two shots of espresso or prepare 8 ounces of hot coffee and pour it into a large coffee mug.

- Add Toppings: Top the latte generously with whipped cream and sprinkle toffee bits over the cream. Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Caramel Brûlée Latte!
Notes
- You can substitute whole milk with any milk of your choice such as almond, oat, or soy milk.
- For stronger coffee flavor, use espresso shots; alternatively, hot brewed coffee works well too.
- Adjust the amount of caramel syrup to your preferred sweetness level.
- Toffee bits add texture, but you can replace them with caramel drizzle or crushed caramel candies.
- Use a small whisk or milk frother to create foam for better texture.
