Salted Caramel pot de crème

Desserts that don’t require any baking or cooking are the absolute bomb! If I could never use my oven ever again, I would be in heaven! I always feel like ditching the oven each time I make desserts for my guests. This recipe allows me to prepare a dessert while the oven is being used for the main course or side dishes.
Anyways, I figured this recipe is fancy but will make your life easier whenever you are having many people over.
