Directions

1. Mix pudding with milk and vanilla in a medium sized bowl with an electric mixer.(Do not use the same amount of milk as the package directions.)

2. Pour into a 9X12 baking dish and refrigerate for 1 hour or until pudding sets up.(I used a round baking dish. You can use any size.)

3. Mix sugars together, and sprinkle over top of pudding; make sure the entire surface of pudding is covered. (The sugar is what caramelizes.)

4. Place baking dish in broiler part of oven. You want the baking pan within 5-7 inches of the heating element. Bake until sugar mixture is melted and bubbling. This will only take a few minutes, so stand watch to prevent burning. (Be Very Careful It Will Be Extremely Hot.)
