Ingredients

Recipe By Me

  • 1/3 Cup Water
  • 2 Cups Sugar
  • 1 3/4 Cups Heavy Cream
  • A pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan heat the water and sugar over medium-low heat until the sugar is dissolved.
    2 Cups Sugar, 1/3 Cup Water
  • Turn the heat up to medium and boil until the sugar turns a caramel color. Do not walk away. The sugar can easily burn. This takes about 5-10 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat and slowly add the cream. Be careful not to go too fast because it will bubble and pop.
    1 3/4 Cups Heavy Cream
  • Add the salt and vanilla.
    1 teaspoon Vanilla, A pinch of salt
  • Simmer over low heat, stirring the whole time for another 1-3 minutes or until smooth.
  • Let cool and thicken for 1-3 hours.
