Categories     Desserts     Frostings and Icings

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups milk
½ cup white sugar
1 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise
6 egg yolks
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Place the milk, half the sugar and the vanilla bean in a saucepan over medium heat.
  • Combine the egg yolks and the remaining sugar in a bowl and whisk until light in color. Add in the flour and the salt, mix to combine.
  • When the milk just begins to boil, remove from heat and remove vanilla bean. Very slowly dribble the hot milk into the yolk mixture, stirring all the time. When about half of the milk has been added, place all of the yolk mixture into the saucepan over medium heat. Using a spatula or a whisk, mix the pastry cream as it heats, making sure to reach all of the corners of the pan when you stir. Bring the mixture to a boil. Let boil for about 1 minute, stirring constantly. The mixture will be thick.
  • Remove from heat and add the butter. Strain if you wish for a smoother cream. Place into a bowl and cover directly with plastic wrap to stop a skin from forming on the cream. Chill and use within a few days.

VANILLA CREAM FILLED CARAMELS BULL'S EYE COPYCAT (GLUTEN-FREE)



Vanilla Cream Filled Caramels Bull's Eye Copycat (Gluten-Free) image

Goetze's Bull's Eye caramels are delicious but I haven't eaten one since being diagnosed with Celiac Disease since they contain wheat. I missed them so I started searching for a copycat recipe. I couldn't find one, so I combined a caramel recipe and a cream recipe. The resulting caramels are a lot creamier than authentic Bull's Eyes, but I think are better for it. You'll want a helper for the final stage; it took me around 2.5 hours.

Categories     Candy

Time 4h30m

Yield 100 caramels, 50 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup condensed milk
2 cups light corn syrup
1/2 cup water
2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/8 ounce unflavored gelatin (1/2 an envelope)
2 tablespoons cold water
1/2 cup shortening
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
powdered sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Prepare a 9x9 pan by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying the foil with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Combine the cream and condensed milk in a small saucepan and place the saucepan on a burner set to the lowest heat setting. Do not allow to boil, just keep warm.
  • In a medium-large saucepan combine the corn syrup, water, and granulated sugar over medium-high heat.
  • Stir the candy until the sugar dissolves, then use a wet pastry brush to wash down the sides of the pan to prevent sugar crystals from forming and making the candy grainy.
  • Insert a candy thermometer and reduce the heat to medium. Allow the mixture to come to a boil and cook until the thermometer reads 250°F.
  • Add the softened butter and the warm milk-cream mixture. The temperature should decrease about 30°F.
  • Continue to cook the caramel, stirring constantly so that the bottom does not scorch. Cook it until the thermometer reads 244F, and the caramel is a beautiful dark golden brown.
  • Remove the caramel from the heat and immediately pour into the prepared pan. Do not scrape candy from the bottom of the saucepan. Allow the candy to sit overnight to set up and develop a smooth, silky texture.
  • When you are ready to cut the caramel, place a piece of waxed paper on the counter and lift the caramel from the pan using the foil as handles. Flip the top of the caramel onto the waxed paper and peel the foil layer from the bottom of the caramel.
  • Cream Filling:.
  • Dissolve unflavored gelatin in cold water.
  • Set in heat proof cup in pan; Simmer until clear.
  • Let cool.
  • Cream together shortening, powdered sugar, and vanilla.
  • Add cooled gelatin and beat for 10 minutes.
  • Here comes the time consuming part. Cut a large amount of wax paper rectangles. Try around 3" x 3", adjusting once you get the hang of it.
  • Take a small piece of caramel, about half of a cubic inch, work into a doughnut shape.
  • Take a small amount of cream filling, about the size of .5" diameter sphere, and press into center of caramel. Dust caramel with powdered sugar. This will prevent the caramel from sticking to the paper and your hands.
  • Shape the caramel into a less flat figure and place into center of wax paper square. Wrap paper around caramel.
  • It will take you a few tries to get the technique down. Don't worry about less than perfectly shaped caramels, just eat them! (My stomach hurt after making these, heh).
  • I ended up with 105 caramels and used about 4/5 of the cream filling. It took me 2.5 hours alone to wrap all of them. I'd recommend enlisting some help.

Tips:

- **Use high-quality vanilla extract.** This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cream filling. - **Don't overcook the cream filling.** Overcooked cream filling will be thick and rubbery. - **Let the cream filling cool completely before using it.** This will help it to set properly. - **Use a piping bag to fill your candies.** This will give you a clean, professional look. - **If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off.** - **Store the cream-filled candies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.**

Conclusion:

Vanilla cream filling is a delicious and versatile filling that can be used in a variety of candies. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. With these tips, you can make perfect vanilla cream filling every time. So, what are you waiting for? Start baking!
