Homemade Caramel Sauce is soooo easy to make! You only need a few simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand, and cook time is less than 10 minutes. Why buy store bought caramel that has high fructose syrup or other preservatives in it when you can whip up a tasty batch for a fraction of the cost and you know exactly what's in it?
Ingredients:
2 sticks unsalted butter
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup cane sugar
2/3 cup heavy whipping cream
Optional: 1/4 tsp vanilla and/or sea salt to taste
In a heavy bottom sauce pan, melt 2 sticks of butter. Once melted add the sugar and heavy cream over medium heat, stirring constantly until it comes to a boil. Continue to stir constantly and boil for 3 minutes...No Longer. Remove from heat, add vanilla and/or sea salt then pour into jars. Allow to cool completely before screwing on the lid, then store in the fridge. And you're all done!
Serve over ice cream, use on brownies, drizzle on cheesecake, in coffee or eat right off the spoon! The possibilities are endless. Keep in the fridge for up to two weeks. It thickens when it is cooled, so to soften set the jar in a bowl of hot water or warm it up in the microwave for a few seconds. ENJOY!
