I grew up on fast food and that culture had a toxic affect on me without really knowing it. You develop this taste for instant gratification that affects every aspect of life. But just as food can be toxic, it can also be the remedy.

Hi Sarah! How much vanilla extract would you recommend adding? Would you add it during the sugar and heavy cream simmer?

1 tsp is good, however I always measure vanilla with my heart. Generally speaking when adding vanilla always do so at the very last stage, off the heat.

Is there any other method I can use to torch the top?

Great question! Perhaps if you have a burner stove, heat up a metal spoon over the flame and then press that spoon onto the sugar!? However, a torch is under $20 on amazon or you can find one at your local hardware store :)
