salted caramel sauce

Are you ready for the best thing you’ve ever tasted? This salted caramel sauce is divine! I am completely obsessed with salted caramel everything lately, so it was only a matter of time before I figured out a way to pour it over all of my desserts. I actually made this caramel sauce a few years ago (minus the salt) and had forgotten how lovely it is. It takes just a few minutes to make and tastes delicious on anything from apple pie to ice cream to warm brownies. This sauce takes any dessert to the next level!
Salted Caramel Sauce
1/2 cup butter, cut into pieces
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanillaIn a medium saucepan, whisk together the butter, sugar, brown sugar, heavy cream, and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently. Simmer 4-6 minutes, or until smooth and golden brown. Remove from heat and whisk in the vanilla. Allow to cool slightly before serving. Store in refrigerator and reheat in the microwave for 15-30 seconds before serving. Makes 2 cups.
