It may be blasphemy to say that hot fudge isn't the ultimate warm ice cream topping, but after tasting this amazing salted caramel sauce, that's exactly what I'm suggesting.

Time 25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup white sugar
5 tablespoons butter, cut into slices
½ cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
1 pinch sea salt to taste

Steps:

  • Place sugar in a heavy-bottomed saucepan set over medium-high heat. Stir continuously until sugar begins to melt. Continue stirring until the sugar melts completely, begins to darken and all the chunks are dissolved, about 10 minutes. Stop stirring and continue to cook until the sugar begins to smoke and turns a dark shade of amber, 3 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat and wait 30 seconds.
  • Whisk in butter until melted and combined. Slowly pour in 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon cream, taking care because it can bubble over. Sprinkle in salt and stir to combine. Transfer sauce to a jar and cool completely before refrigerating.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I made this sauce with almond milk. It turned out just as good as the original recipe.

I love the flavor of this sauce, but it's a bit too runny for my liking. I'll try cooking it for a few minutes longer next time.

This sauce is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out grainy. I think I might have overcooked it.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sauce turned out too thick. I had to add some milk to thin it out.

I'm not a huge fan of caramel sauce, but this one is really good. It's not too sweet, and the saltiness balances it out perfectly.
