Salted Caramel Sauce
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup light corn syrup
- 1 1/4 cups sugar
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- In a microwave-safe cup, combine the cream and corn syrup.
- In a medium, wide saucepan, spread the sugar in an even layer.
- Cook over moderate heat, without stirring, until it begins to caramelize.
- Swirl the pan and stir to incorporate the caramelized sugar.
- At this point, microwave the cream mixture at high power for 2 minutes.
- Continue cooking the sugar until a medium-amber caramel forms, about 4 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and carefully add the hot cream, stirring with a long-handled spoon.
- Return the caramel to low heat and add the butter and salt, stirring until any hardened caramel is melted.
- Transfer the caramel to a heatproof glass jar and let cool.
