Salted Caramel Sauce

Salted caramel is dangerously addictive. It is perfect for storing in the refrigerator as a topping for ice cream, cakes (like Apple Cake or Vanilla Sponge Cake), drizzling on cupcakes, as a dipping sauce (try it with these Baked Apple Pie Fries!), for churros, or simple eating with a spoon (erm yes, am guilty of that)…..the possibilities are endless! It is also perfect for making ahead and gifting as it keeps in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks and in the freezer for up to 2 months.

A very easy recipe for salted caramel. My "go to" that I make all the time for drizzling on ice cream, pancakes, bars and more!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup caster sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Combine sugar and water in saucepan over medium heat.
  • Bring to rolling boil, stirring to help dissolve the sugar.
  • Boil for 5 to 8 minutes, until it turns a golden brown.
  • Pour in the cream, whisking constantly. Be careful, as the caramel is hot and it will foam.
  • Once the cream is combined, remove from heat and whisk in the salt and vanilla.
  • The caramel will seem thin. It thickens alot as it cools.

Recipe Notes:

Store in an air tight container for up to 3 weeks in the refrigerator or up to 2 months in the freezer.

    This is great! But before you put the cream in, make sure to wipe the edges with a damp pastry brush 🙂
