GOOEY CARAMEL SAUCE



Gooey Caramel Sauce image

This caramel is very rich and gooey. It can be thinned with a little water to make a sauce for ice cream or it can be used as-is for a gooey candy filling. Great with apples too! Recipe can be doubled. Because the sugar can turn from caramel to burned rather quickly it is best to have all ingredients measured before starting.

Time 30m

Yield 1 cup, 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon cream
1/2 cup corn syrup
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Heat 1/4 cup sugar in a stainless saucepan on medium heat, do not stir until sugar begins to melt.
  • Once sugar begins to melt, stir it until it has completely melted and begins to turn golden brown.
  • When sugar has started to turn caramel colored, remove pan from heat and immediately add butter and brown sugar and quickly stir together.
  • Once the butter and brown sugar are completely melded with the caramel (add gentle heat if needed to incorporate brown sugar), add the vanilla, corn syrup, cream and salt.
  • Stir together well.
  • The caramel will thicken as it cools.
  • If a thinner caramel is required, add water one tablespoon at a time until the desired thickness is reached; if a thicker caramel is needed, reduce the amount of corn syrup used.

Time 3h

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 teaspoon white sugar
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
½ cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
½ cup milk
¼ cup white sugar
¼ cup butter
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, beaten
4 cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup butter
¾ cup brown sugar
1 cup chopped pecans, divided
¾ cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
¼ cup melted butter

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon sugar and yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes. Warm the milk in a small saucepan until it bubbles, then remove from heat. Mix in 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup butter and salt; stir until melted. Let cool until lukewarm.
  • In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture, milk mixture, eggs and 1 1/2 cup flour; stir well to combine. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
  • Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  • While dough is rising, melt 3/4 cup butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in 3/4 cup brown sugar, whisking until smooth. Pour into greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Sprinkle bottom of pan with 1/2 cup pecans; set aside. Melt remaining butter; set aside. Combine remaining 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup pecans, and cinnamon; set aside.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, roll into an 18x14 inch rectangle. Brush with 2 tablespoons melted butter, leaving 1/2 inch border uncovered; sprinkle with brown sugar cinnamon mixture. Starting at long side, tightly roll up, pinching seam to seal. Brush with remaining 2 tablespoons butter. With serrated knife, cut into 15 pieces; place cut side down, in prepared pan. Cover and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in volume. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool in pan for 3 minutes, then invert onto serving platter. Scrape remaining filling from the pan onto the rolls.

Categories     Other Sauces

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup(s) sugar
6 tablespoon(s) butter
1/2 cup(s) heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon(s) vanilla extract
Pinch - sea salt

Steps:

  • In a heavy bottom 2 quart sauce pan, add sugar. Cook over medium high heat and when sugar starts melting, start whisking sugar. You will notice some lumping up of sugar, just keep whisking until sugar becomes an amber color. Be very careful not to burn.
  • Add butter and whisk until melted and combined, it will bubble up some.
  • Turn off burner and whisk in the cream, thoroughly. Stir in 1/2 tsp vanilla and salt. Cool for 10 - 15 minutes, then pour into a hair or lidded container. Refrigerate, will keep for 3 weeks.
  • Delicious over ice cream or cheesecake!

Tips:

  • Use a heavy saucepan: This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the caramel from burning.
  • Use a candy thermometer: This will help you to ensure that the caramel reaches the correct temperature.
  • Be patient: Making caramel takes time. Don't try to rush the process or you'll end up with a burnt mess.
  • Stir constantly: This will help to prevent the caramel from sticking to the bottom of the pan and burning.
  • Don't add the cream all at once: Adding the cream too quickly can cause the caramel to seize up. Instead, add it in a slow, steady stream.
  • Let the caramel cool slightly before using: This will help to prevent it from being too hot when you pour it over your desserts.

Conclusion:

Gooey caramel sauce is a delicious and versatile topping that can be used on a variety of desserts. It's easy to make at home with just a few simple ingredients. By following the tips above, you can make perfect caramel sauce every time. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give gooey caramel sauce a try. You won't be disappointed!
