Ingredients
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 12 Tbsp butter unsalted at room temperature, cut into pieces
- 1 cup heavy cream at room temperature
- pinch salt
Instructions
- Heat the sugar over medium-high heat in the bottom of a heavy medium saucepan. When the sugar starts to melt, start whisking. The sugar will start sticking together in clumps, but keep whisking until the sugar is melted.
- Continue cooking the sugar until it reaches a deep amber color. Make sure you watch very closely to prevent burning. As soon as the sugar reaches the dark amber color, carefully add the butter. Stir until butter is melted.
- Remove the pan from the heat and slowly pour in the room temperature heavy cream. Whisk until cream is combined and caramel is smooth.
- Let cool for about 10 minutes in the pan. Pour the caramel into a large jar and cool to room temperature. Store the caramel sauce in the refrigerator for about a month.
