Caramel Ingredients
Method
Caramel Preparation
- 1
Make the Caramel
In a medium saucepan, heat the granulated sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or heat-resistant spatula until the sugar melts and turns a golden amber color.

Add Butter
Once the sugar is melted, carefully add the unsalted butter. The mixture will bubble up, so be cautious. Stir until the butter is completely melted and combined.
- 3
Incorporate Cream
Slowly drizzle in the heavy cream while stirring continuously. The mixture will bubble up again. Keep stirring until smooth and well combined.

Finish the Caramel
