This makes a great toffee sauce which can be used as a sauce on ice cream and with other puddings, and can be used to fill cupcakes and can be mixed in with buttercream.
Ingredients
125g caster sugar
60ml water
60ml double cream
1tsp vanilla essence
Optional: For salted caramel add 1/4 tsp salt.
Method
1) Put the Sugar and water in a heavy bottomed saucepan on a low heat. ( I have a stove which goes from 1-15, I had it on 8 initially but once it stated to colour I turned it down to 5 as a precaution)
2) Heat until it turns a dark gold colour (the colour of string tea), then remove from the heat.
3) Immediately add the cream. It will bubble vigourously and spit, but continue mixing until combined.
4) Add the vanilla essence (and salt) and mix in.
5) Finally ...ENJOY
