Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter
  • 3/4 packed dark brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon course salt
  • 2/3 cup whipping cream
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla

  • In a medium sized, heavy-bottom saucepan melt the butter over medium heat. When melted, stir in the brown sugar til it's starting to dissolve. Then add in the salt & and whipping cream and stir until dissolved.
  • Bring the mixture to a slow, gentle, rumbling boil and allow to bubble for approximately 5 minutes while stirring occasionally to ensure the mixture isn't burning. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
  • Serve warm over ice cream, or allow to cool completely and store in an airtight container in the fridge.
