Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar (200 g)
- ¼ heaping teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup water (60 ml)
- 2 Tablespoons light corn syrup
- ½ cup heavy cream room temperature (120 ml)
- 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter cut into 2 pieces room temperature (28 g)
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- Apple slices for dipping
Instructions
- Combine sugar, salt, water, and corn syrup in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir occasionally until sugar is dissolved. If any sugar remains on the side of the pot, use a damp pastry brush to wash them down into the pot.
- Increase heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture comes to a boil.
- Once bubbling, allow mixture to cook until it begins to turn caramel in color and reaches 340F (171C).
- Immediately remove the pot from heat and, slowly, cautiously (because it will bubble a lot – don’t get splattered!), drizzle cream into the mixture while stirring.
- Once cream is fully incorporated, stir in butter one piece at a time until the mixture is smooth.
- Stir in vanilla extract.
- Allow caramel to cool before serving (it will thicken as it cools). We like to dip apple slices and graham crackers but you can really dip anything you’d like!
