Equipment

  • Mixing bowls 
  • Electric mixer
  • 9x13 inch baking dish
  • Spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 2 sleeves Ritz crackers
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt flakes optional
  • Extra caramel sauce for drizzling optional

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Whipped Cream:
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture on high speed until stiff peaks form.
  • Prepare the Caramel Cream:
  • In a separate bowl, mix the sweetened condensed milk and caramel sauce until well combined.
  • Gently fold the caramel mixture into the whipped cream until fully incorporated.
  • Assemble the Cake:
  • In a 9x13-inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of the caramel cream mixture on the bottom.
  • Arrange a single layer of Ritz crackers over the caramel cream.
  • Spread a third of the remaining caramel cream over the Ritz crackers.
  • Repeat the layers twice more, ending with a layer of caramel cream on top.
  • Chill the Cake:
  • Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the crackers to soften.
  • Serve:
  • Before serving, sprinkle the top with sea salt flakes, if desired, and drizzle with extra caramel sauce.
