Ingredients:

  • 6 miniature croissants
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 tbsp butter

Directions:

  1. Place croissants on a baking sheet; bake at 350° for 5 minutes or until warmed.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine sugar and water. Bring to a boil. Cook and stir over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Increase heat to medium-high. Cook without stirring until mixture turns an amber color and a candy thermometer reads 330°. Remove from the heat; gradually stir in cream and butter until smooth.
  3. Split croissants horizontally. Place a scoop of ice cream on the bottom half of each croissant; replace tops. Drizzle each with 2 tablespoons caramel sauce (save remaining sauce for another use). Yield: 6 servings (1-1/2 cups sauce).
