I like to think of this recipe as a bonus.
I am going to share a super yummy recipe with you first thing in the morning, You’ll have to wait and see what it is, but it needed to be topped with caramel sauce.
 
Guess what?
Didn’t have any.
 
I seriously am at the grocery 6 days a week it seems, and I wasn’t going!
 
So, I did a google search to look up recipes for caramel sauce.
 
Looked at a couple then happened upon this one from Sally’s Baking Addition — I love her website, and knew this was the one I wanted to try.
Even better, it was for salted caramel.
 
Love that sweet and salty combo…and knew this would be perfect!
 
And it WAS!!
 
I said it was a bonus?
Well, I hadn’t planned on sharing a recipe today, but when I posted the ooey gooey picture on my facebook page and a bunch of people wanted to lick their screen… so I had an unexpected recipe share.
bonus.
 
 I can add the link to this recipe on the one I am posting tomorrow?
bonus.
 
I can stir a little of this into a coffee? Bonus.
 
Top some ice cream with it? Bonus.
 
Dip apples in it? Bonus.
 
Share it with you? B-O-N-U-S!!
 
 
In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, heat sugar, stirring constantly. Sugar will begin to clump, keep stirring.
 
 
Sugar will begin to melt and turn a pretty amber color.
 
Add the butter, and keep stirring until it’s melted and incorporated.
 
 
 
Slowly drizzle the cream into the mixture.  Because of the difference in the temperature of the cream and butter/sugar mixture it will bubble and pop.  Allow to boil for 1 minute.
 
 
Remove from heat and stir in sea salt.
 
 
 
Cool before using in recipes.
 
Store in an air tight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
 
(if it could seriously last that long!)
 
Lick your sticky fingers. Bonus!
 
Pat yourself on the back for staying home from the store!
 
Enjoy!
