Step 4

Stir the condensed milk and 1/2 cup of the caramel sauce together.

Chill a metal bowl in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or in the freezer for 15 minutes.

Step 10

Quickly whisk the dry vanilla pudding mix in the chilled bowl to remove any clumps.

Step 11

Add the heavy cream and mix by hand or with a hand mixer on medium or medium-high speed until the mixture thickens.

Step 12

Add 1/4 cup of the caramel sauce, the vanilla extract, and the salt.

Mix until the whipped cream reaches stiff peaks.

Step 14

Immediately spread the caramel whipped cream over the chilled cake.
