Instructions

  1. Place granulated white sugar in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Allow sugar to melt without stirring, gently swirling the pan occasionally to ensure even melting.
  3. Once sugar is fully melted and amber in color, carefully add diced unsalted butter while stirring continuously.
  4. Continue stirring until butter is completely melted and combined with the sugar.
  5. Slowly For in heavy cream while stirring; the mixture will bubble vigorously.
  6. Cook the sauce for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until smooth and creamy.
  7. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in pure vanilla extract and a pinch of fine sea salt.
  8. Allow the caramel sauce to cool slightly before using or storing in a jar.

Tips

  • Use a heavy-bottomed pan to prevent burning the sugar.
