Easy Homemade Caramel Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 tbsp butter
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Directions:
- In a heavy bottomed pan, combine the sugar and water, and stir (from here on out, no more stirring, only swirling). Cook the mixture over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Raise the heat to medium high, and cook until it turns amber colored. Add in the butter and wait a few seconds for that to melt and stop sputtering.
- Remove the pan from the heat, and add the heavy cream and vanilla extract. It will bubble up but will calm down within 5 to 10 seconds. Let the caramel sauce cool, then transfer to a container.
