Caramel Sauce Recipe
This is a wonderful rich caramel sauce that is a fantastic ice cream topping. It's also delicious on apples.

Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 1/4 cup heavy cream

Directions
  1. **Use a wooden spoon only-I haven't tried silicon but do not use metal
  2. In a medium sauce pan on med/low heat gently add the sugar and water. Try not to get any sugar on the side of the sauce pan.
  3. DO NOT STIR
  4. When the sugar melts, turn heat to medium/medium-high
  5. DO NOT STIR
  6. As I'm waiting on the sugar, I add the vanilla to the cream
  7. If you have to, gently swirl pan to get sugar off the sides
  8. Keep an eye on it when it starts to turn color and at this point you can swirl a bit more
  9. DO NOT STIR
  10. When the sugar turns a rich amber color, take it off of the heat
  11. While stirring the syrup with a wooden spoon, SLOWLY add the Cream and Vanilla-it will seize up but keep stirring until you the mixture is pretty smooth; be very careful because it will bubble furiously.
  12. Turn the burner back down to low and put the mixture back on the heat stirring continuously.
  13. It will continue to smooth out more by stirring while on the heat. When the sauce thickens a bit more, add the Tablespoon of Butter.
  14. Stir until the butter melts and it is bubbling gently.
  15. Take off heat and put in container.
  16. The mixture will continue to thicken as it cools.
