Easiest Caramel
  1. In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat 2 cups sugar over medium-low heat.

  2. Stir constantly with a heatproof spatula or wooden spoon as it melts and turns amber.

  3. Once the sugar is fully melted and amber-colored, carefully add 12 tbsp butter.

  4. Turn the heat to low and stir until fully melted and combined.

  5. Turn off your heat and slowly pour in 1 cup of heavy cream while stirring.

  6. Stir until the sauce is smooth and glossy.

  7. Stir in a pinch of salt for a salted caramel flavor.

  8. Let it cool about 15–20 minutes before using — it should be thick but pourable.
