Easy Caramel Sauce Recipe

Homemade caramel sauce is so simple, you'll never want store-bought again! Easy 1-step, 5 ingredient salted caramel sauce recipe.

Serving: 1 cup caramel sauce

Ingredients

• 1 cup (200 gr) light brown sugar, packed

• 4 Tbsp unsalted butter*

• 1 tsp sea salt, or to taste

• ½ cup half and half (or use equal parts heavy cream and milk)

• 1 Tbsp real vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Combine all ingredients in a small/medium saucepan and simmer over low heat, whisking constantly or until thickened and no longer watery (6-9 min). Keep in mind it thickens more as it cools. Serve warm, at room temperature or chilled. Refrigerate in an airtight container up to 2 weeks. You can re-warm it slightly to make it more drizzle-able.

Notes

*If using salted butter, reduce salt to ½ tsp or add it to taste.
