Caramel Sauce

(from SallyV’s recipe box)

Cook time: 10 minutes

Categories: Dessert

Ingredients

  • 1/2 C. of butter
  • 1 C. light brown sugar, firmly packed
  • Dash of salt
  • 1/2 C. of heavy cream
  • 1 t. vanilla extract

Directions

  1. In a heavy bottomed sauce pan with high sides melt the butter. Add the brown sugar and salt, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a rolling boil.

  2. Slowly add the heavy cream…it will bubble furiously. Whisk constantly until the cream is incorporated. Bring to a boil again and, while still stirring, add the vanilla. Stir and remove from the heat.

  3. Let the sauce cool and pour into a storage jar. Can be stored in the fridge for about 2 weeks.
