Caramel Sauce

I don't know about you but I'm a sucker for a bit of caramel.  I decided to make some homemade caramel sauce.

This caramel sauce is so easy to make and is ideal for drizzling over ice-cream or any dessert.  It's also great for spreading in between cake layers as a filling or you can simply eat it with a spoon from the jar.

If you wanted to make salted caramel just remember to add a bit more salt to taste or about ½ teaspoon to this recipe.

Caramel Sauce

Ingredients

· 60 grams salted butter
· ½ cup milk
· 1 cup brown sugar
· ¼ teaspoon baking soda

Instructions

1. Place all ingredients into a saucepan over low to medium heat and stir until all ingredients have melted and the mixture thickens (this can take up to 10 minutes).

2. To check if the caramel sauce has thickened, place some of the sauce onto the back of a wooden spoon. It the sauce doesn’t drip off then it’s ready to remove from the heat.

3. Pour into a jar and allow it to cool before placing it into the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Tips

· The caramel sauce will thicken more when it’s cooled.
· You may like to warm up the caramel sauce before using it.
