CARAMEL SAUCE IN CROCKPOT, SUPER EASY!
My very good friend Jana McK. gave me this recipe for the stove top. I have adapted it for the crock pot. It makes for a super easy, no fuss caramel dipping sauce. Great for fruit, nuts and even pretzels. Only 2 ingredients. Remember crock pots vary in their heat intensities. Mine gets very hot on high. Finally, you might want to line the crockpot with those disposable liners to make it easier to clean up the sticky glue from the can and make sure you wait until the can is warm, not hot or the "sauce" will explode.

Steps:
- Take can of sweetened condensed milk and remove label. (Do Not Open).
- Place in a 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 quart crock pot.
- Pour water in crock pot until the can is completely covered with water. You only need water to be 1/4 in over the top of can.
- Put lid on crock pot.
- Heat on high for 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 hours (the longer the milk cooks the darker the caramel will be).
- At desired time remove can with tongs (Be careful the can will be very hot).
- Allow to cool to the point that you can touch the can, but the can will be still warm.
- Open can and pour contents into a bowl that has a good sealing lid.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- At this point you are ready for dipping.
- Any leftovers can be placed in the refrigerator.

Tips for Making Caramel Sauce:
- Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan: This will help distribute the heat evenly and prevent the sugar from burning.
- Use a candy thermometer: This is the best way to ensure that the sugar reaches the correct temperature.
- Be patient: Making caramel sauce takes time. Don't rush the process or the sauce will not turn out right.
- Stir constantly: Stirring the sauce constantly will help prevent the sugar from crystallizing.
- Use caution when adding the cream: The hot caramel sauce will bubble and splatter when you add the cream. Be careful not to get burned.
- Store the sauce properly: Caramel sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
Caramel sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used to top desserts, ice cream, or fruit. It can also be used as a filling for cakes and pies. With these simple tips, you can make perfect caramel sauce at home.
