Best Caramel Sauce
Ingredients
1/2 Cup European Style Salted Butter
1 Cup Dark Brown Sugar, packed
3/4 Cup Heavy Cream
1 Tbsp Cook’s Pure Vanilla Extract Double Strength
Directions
- Melt butter in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat until it bubbles rapidly and the solids separate, then whisk in brown sugar and cook, stirring constantly until a paste forms.
- Continue cooking until the granular nature of the sugar is gone and you have a uniform texture.
- Remove from heat and add heavy cream and vanilla extract slowly and carefully as it will produce steam.
- Return to heat and stir until the solids from the sugar are combined with the cream. This can remain refrigerated for three weeks.
