Ingredients
The following ingredients have 8 Servings
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt ((up to 1 teaspoon can be used, if you like a more pronounced salty taste))
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
- 2 tablespoons water
Instruction
- In a small pot, gently heat the cream, butter, and salt until the butter has melted and the salt has completely dissolved.
- Remove from heat and add the vanilla.
- In a larger pot, combine the sugar, corn syrup, and water.
- Cook over medium-high heat, swirling the pot occasionally to distribute the heat evenly.
- Continue to boil the sugar mixture until the bubbles begin to get smaller and it becomes amber-colored.
- Reduce the heat to low, and pour in the warm cream mixture, whisking constantly to avoid lumps or crystals.
- Immediately transfer the hot mixture to a heat-safe vessel and cool completely.
