Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar
- 6 tablespoons salted butter
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon Flaky sea salt
Instructions
- Place the sugar in a large, heavy saucepan. Set over medium heat.
- Cook the sugar, stirring frequently. It will start to melt and clump up, continue to cook and stir until it melts completely and is a dark amber color.
- Once all of the sugar has melted, add the butter and whisk until fully combined. This might take a minute or two.
- Slowly pour in the cream and whisk to combine. The mixture might seize up, but just keep whisking. Once it is combined, let it come to a boil and boil for 1 minute.
- Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the salt.
- The caramel will thicken slightly as it cools.
Notes
- SUBSTITUTIONS: Regular granulated sugar works perfectly, but if you have superfine sugar, it will melt even faster. A flaky sea salt will have the best flavor in this recipe. If you don’t have a flaky sea salt, use fine sea salt. My next choice would be Kosher salt, followed by table salt. Table salt is often more sharp, so I would cut back the amount by half if using and taste and adjust from there.
- STORE: If not using right away, store in the refrigerator. I like to put mine in a jar. The caramel sauce will set up a lot more once refrigerated, so you may need to reheat it until it is a pourable consistency when using.
