Homemade Salted Caramel Sauce
This salted caramel sauce is so simple to make and includes very easy ingredients. There aren’t too many steps, but if you follow them exactly, you’ll have a gorgeous caramel sauce in no time!
Servings: 2 Cups
Ingredients
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- ⅔ cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt, more to taste
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the 8 tablespoons unsalted butter. Once the butter is completely melted, stir in the 1 cup packed brown sugar. Whisk the mixture briskly and constantly for 2 minutes on medium-low heat.
- The mixture will barely start to bubble. Briskly whisk in the ⅔ cup heavy whipping cream.
- Add in the 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, raise the heat to medium, and briskly whisk for another 2 minutes.
- Remove the mixture from the heat. It will be relatively thick, but not as thick as a caramel sauce. Pour the mixture into a heat-safe jar, and place it in the fridge.
- After about 30 to 45 minutes, the mixture will be a thick and delicious caramel sauce. Stir in the ½ teaspoon salt, and increase the amount to taste.
