How Can I Make Caramel My NoBurn Silky Sauce

Instructions:

1. In the saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Stir gently to moisten all the sugar crystals.
2. Heat over medium heat, without stirring, until the mixture boils and turns a deep amber color. Swirl the pan gently if needed to ensure even coloring.
3. Once the caramel reaches a deep amber color, immediately remove the saucepan from the heat.
4. Carefully add the cubed butter all at once. The mixture will bubble vigorously. Stir gently with a wooden spoon until the butter is completely melted and incorporated.
5. Slowly pour in the heavy cream, stirring constantly. The mixture will bubble again. Continue stirring until the caramel is smooth and uniform.
6. Return the saucepan to low heat for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to ensure everything is fully combined.
7. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt (if using).
8. Pour the caramel sauce into a heat-proof jar or container. Let it cool to room temperature before covering and storing in the refrigerator. It will thicken as it cools.
