Homemade Caramel is beginner friendly 🫶🏾

1/4 cup water

1 cup granulated sugar

6 tablespoons butter

1/2 cup heavy cream

Salt & vanilla (optional)

DIRECTIONS:

1. In a pot take 1 cup of sugar & ¼ cup of water & mix it until combined.

2. Leave this to cook until it turns into an amber golden color, making sure to periodically swipe the sides so that there is no crystallization with the sugar.

3. Once it turns color, move the pot off the stove and add the butter. Make sure the butter is cut up so that it melts faster.

4. Once the butter is melted add the heavy cream slowly while continuously stirring the heavy cream in. 

5. When everything is combined, place caramel into an air safe container & store in the fridge.   #caramel #homemade #homemadecaramel #carameldrizzle #caramelsyrup

... Read moreMaking homemade caramel is a delightful experience, especially for beginners. The recipe requires only a few basic ingredients: granulated sugar, water, butter, and heavy cream. Start by combining sugar and water in a pot, allowing it to cook until it transforms into a beautiful amber color. This step is crucial, as the right consistency will give your caramel that rich, deep flavor. Adding butter and heavy cream to the mixture enhances its creamy texture and provides a smooth finish. For added flavor, consider adding a pinch of salt or a splash of vanilla extract. Once prepared, store your caramel in an airtight container in the fridge, ready to be drizzled over desserts, mixed into coffee, or enjoyed straight from the jar. Homemade caramel also makes an excellent gift when jarred beautifully. This simple yet elegant recipe will surely impress your friends and family!
