This salted caramel sauce is easy to make and only takes a few items that you probably already have on hand. The combination of heavy cream, butter, caramelized sugar, and vanilla creates a recipe that you and your family will love.
INGREDIENTS
- 1/4 cup of water
- One sugar cup
- 1.5 cups of heavy cream
- chopped into tablespoon-sized pieces, three tablespoons of unsalted butter
- a single vanilla bean
- 1 salt shakerful
PREPARATION
Large sauce pan over medium heat with water and sugar, stirring regularly until sugar dissolves.
Stop stirring once the sugar has dissolved, then raise the heat to high and bring to a boil. Boil the mixture for an additional 4 to 12 minutes, or until the mixture turns amber in color.
Taking the pan from the heat, slowly whisk in the heavy cream. Because the mixture will bubble up, add the cream slowly. Combine thoroughly after mixing.
Once the butter has melted completely, stir in the salt and add the vanilla salt.
In a plate, pour the caramel sauce and let it cool fully.
Reheat if necessary after storing in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
