Do you ever get that deep, existential craving for caramel sauce to drench your ice cream or to treat some innocent apple slices like royalty? Because I surely do! But wouldn’t you know it, the universe has a sense of humour and the store is always out of the good stuff, leaving you with the sad, generic caramel that doesn’t even whisper sweet nothings to your taste buds. Fear not! Here’s a quick and easy caramel sauce to rescue you from your sugary despair. Just a friendly heads-up: be careful while making it—cooking sugar is like wrestling a greased pig; it can turn nasty real quick, and nobody wants melted sugar fusing itself to their skin like a poorly thought-out tattoo!
Quick and Easy Caramel Sauce
Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Combine water, brown sugar, butter, corn starch in a medium pot. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring constantly.
- Reduce heat and simmer until thick, adding in the vanilla, stirring occasionally to not burn the sugar.
- Remove from heat and allow the caramel sauce to cool
- Transfer into a sealable container. I would recommend a glass jar such as a mason jar for canning purposes.
