Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • salt pinch
  • 1/4 cup water cold
  • 2 Tablespoons butter cold, unsalted
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream 35%
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Notes

  • Use a stainless steel pot with a heavy bottom to make your homemade caramel sauce. This will help keep the caramel from heating too fast or heating too much.
  • No stirring! If you feel you absolutely must stir the sugar and water mixture, do so by gently lifting the pan and tilting it around to swirl the mixture in the pan. No spoons.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Make sure the caramel sauce is completely cooled before refrigerating.
  • If you think you have the right size of pan, grab the next largest pot and use it! As you add the cream and vanilla the sauce will foam up and expand significantly and you could get burned if it overflows the pan or splashes out.
