Ingredients
- 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
- 4 tbsp Salted Butter
- 1/4 cup Heavy Cream
Instructions
- Using a heavy-duty and wide stainless steal saucepan or sauté pan, add the granulated sugar and spread it into an even layer
- Warm over medium heat, stirring constantly as the sugar starts to melt to ensure it doesn't burn. First the sugar will form clumps before melting into an amber-colored liquid (Note: this could take between 5-15 minutes depending on your stovetop, mine took almost 15 minutes)
- Once melted, remove from the heat and stir in the butter. Be careful as the mixture will be bubbling a lot. Stir until the butter is melted
- Pour in the heavy cream slowly and stir until everything is combined
- Transfer to a small bowl or glass cup/mason jar to cool completely
- Once cooled, use in recipes or add as a topping to an ice cream sundae!
