The best way to make caramel is to use this recipe as a base, but then modify it as much as you’d like (or simply enjoy it as is). Want salted caramel? (ummm hello yummy salted caramel!) Just stir in half a teaspoon of salt at the end. Want some fancy nutty caramel? Sprinkle some chopped peanuts on top (salted or unsalted) before serving.

Caramel sauce is easier to make than you think, and you don’t even need a candy thermometer. Be warned though, the melted sugar is HOT. Be extra careful when stirring in the butter and cream (it’s a good idea to keep the kids out of the kitchen to prevent any accidents!).
This recipe makes 1 large or 2 small jars. Cover and refrigerate any unused caramel (it should keep for 10-14 days).
The caramel will thicken as it cools, but you can warm it up in a pan or the microwave for 5 seconds to loosen it up if you need to.
Sure you can buy caramel sauce at the store, but this homemade sauce is so simple to make, and tastes fresh and decadent! Enjoy!
