This sauce can be made in just minutes and is so easy too! Give it a little different flavor by adding a pinch of salt at the end if you like sweet and salty.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cu. salted butter, melted
- 1 cu. light brown sugar
- 1/2 cu. heavy cream
- 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla
Steps
- In a 4 cup microwave safe glass bowl (or larger) combine melted butter, brown sugar and heavy cream, whisking until blended and there are no lumps.
- Heat mixture in microwave on high for 2 minutes and remove to stir. Return to microwave and heat for 2 more minutes until bubbly and slightly thickened.
- Stir in salt and vanilla and allow to cool until warm, not hot. Mixture will thicken as it cools.
- Serve warm.
- If caramel cools completely reheat by placing in microwave for 20-25 seconds.
