Categories     Dips

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 c sugar
1 1/4 c heavy cream
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp coarse sea salt

Steps:

  • 1. Spread the sugar in an even layer over the bottom of a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan. Place over medium-low heat, watching carefully. When the sugar begins to liquefy around the edges, use a heatproof spatula to gently stir it towards the center. Continue stirring very gently until all the sugar is melted, taking care not to over stir.
  • 2. Measure out the heavy cream in a liquid measuring cup and scrape the seeds from the vanilla bean into the cream. Set aside. Once the caramel reaches a deep amber color, immediately remove the sauce pan from the heat. (To test the color, spoon a drop onto a white plate or bowl.) Carefully whisk in half of the heavy cream along with the vanilla bean seeds. The mixture will steam and bubble violently. Stir until the cream is well incorporated, then whisk in the remaining cream.
  • 3. Stir in the salt and the vanilla. If any sugar has hardened, place the saucepan over low heat and whisk until smooth.
  • 4. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. If needed, it can be rewarmed in the microwave or in a saucepan over low heat.

This sauce is perfect for making caramel apples. It's thick and sticky, and it holds its shape well.

This sauce is a bit too thick for my taste. I like my caramel sauce to be a little more runny.

This sauce was way too sweet for my taste. I had to add a lot of salt to balance it out.

I'm not usually a fan of caramel sauce, but this one is really good. It's not too sweet, and it has a nice, rich flavor.

This sauce was amazing! I used half the amount of brown sugar because I don't like things too sweet, and it was perfect. It was thick and rich, and it tasted like it came from a fancy restaurant.

I made this sauce last night and it was a disaster. It was too thick and it didn't taste very good. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
