Ingredients

  • 200 grams (1 cup) sugar
  • 6 Tbsp melted butter
  • 115 grams (1⁄2 cup) heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • 3⁄4 tsp sea salt

Instructions

1

In a saucepan, heat the sugar on medium/low, stirring with a wire whisk occasionally as you heat it until dissolved and it’s a light amber color and smooth. This can take a while and it’s important to let all the crystals melt without the color getting too dark. Pull it off the heat for a bit if you see its unevenly cooking (lots of crystal bits not melting in an already too dark melted sugar.)

2

Lower the heat and slowly whisk in the melted butter until combined. Be careful as it can pop and splash at first.

3

Remove from the heat and add the cream, slowly.

4

Add the vanilla paste and salt and stir until combined.

5

Let cool in a heat proof bowl and refrigerate until you’re ready to enjoy!
