Homemade Salted Caramel Recipe

Prep:5minCook:15min

Made from only 4 simple ingredients, this homemade caramel is salty, sweet, and irresistibly buttery. No candy thermometer required and the possibilities for serving are endless. (Though just a spoon is acceptable!) Use caution as the cooking caramel may splatter. Stand back and wear kitchen gloves if desired. Review recipe notes prior to beginning.

OK. This is VERY good!! I've only had store-bought caramel sauce, and this is WAY better than that!! I made it to go over a sweet potato cheesecake. I can't wait for Christmas dessert!! I added a half teaspoon of vanilla extract, but, other than that, I followed the recipe. It took longer than the recipe said, but I didn't want to burn it, so I didn't have the heat up as much as I probably should have. The outcome is worth the time.
