Ingredients

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons corn syrup Karo
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons butter salted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Combine sugar, corn syrup and water in a small pot and bring to a boil over medium heat.
  • Continue boiling for 10-14 minutes or until the liquid is an amber color.
  • Remove from heat and add in heavy cream, butter and vanilla and stir until blended in.

NOTE:

  • If you begin to develop crystalization in your caramel mixture after adding the cream, you can add a few tablespoons of water and stir the mixture continuously over the heat until all of the crystals are dissolved.
