This amazing salted caramel sauce has become my ultimate warm ice cream topping. It's easy to make with sugar, butter, cream, and a pinch of sea salt.
Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar
- 5 tablespoons butter , cut into slices
- 0.5 cups heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream
- 1 pinch sea salt , or to taste
Instructions
-
1
Place sugar in a heavy-bottomed saucepan set over medium-high heat, stirring continuously until sugar begins to melt. Continue stirring until sugar completely melts, begins to darken, and all chunks are dissolved, about 10 minutes. Stop stirring; continue cooking until sugar begins to smoke and turns a dark shade of amber, 3 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat and wait 30 seconds.

Whisk in butter until melted and combined. Slowly pour in ½ cup plus 1 tablespoon cream, taking care because it can bubble over. Sprinkle in salt; stir to combine. Transfer sauce to a jar; cool completely before refrigerating.

These s'mores cupcakes take quite a bit of time (and dishes) to make—I won't lie. However, the end result is a gorgeously delicious confection with a crisp graham cracker crust, rich chocolate cake middle, and a billowy toasted marshmallow frosting.
