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.

Barb's Firecrackers
I brought Barb's firecrackers recipe to my niece's Fourth of July party. I wanted something portable, simple to make, and of course, really tasty! I love Mexican food, so this recipe, inspired by South of the border food, yet created in New England, was my go-to. Adjust the heat with hotter or milder taco seasoning.
Oatmeal Dried Fruit Cookies
These are the best oatmeal cookies I've ever had! Very buttery and very hearty. Any dried fruit works well such as cherries, raisins, cranberries, blueberries, or chopped apricots. For a really decadent treat, use chocolate chips and nuts instead of fruit.
Red Velvet-Center Cheesecake
