Best 5 Gooey Caramel Sauce Recipes

GOOEY CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat 1/4 cup sugar in a stainless saucepan on medium heat, do not stir until sugar begins to melt.
• Once sugar begins to melt, stir it until it has completely melted and begins to turn golden brown.
• When sugar has started to turn caramel colored, remove pan from heat and immediately add butter and brown sugar and quickly stir together.
• Once the butter and brown sugar are completely melded with the caramel (add gentle heat if needed to incorporate brown sugar), add the vanilla, corn syrup, cream and salt.
• Stir together well.
• The caramel will thicken as it cools.
• If a thinner caramel is required, add water one tablespoon at a time until the desired thickness is reached; if a thicker caramel is needed, reduce the amount of corn syrup used.

CLASSIC CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring the cream to a boil in a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat.
• Cook the sugar, water, and honey in a 3-quart heavy-duty saucepan over high heat until the mixture comes to a boil. Brush around the inside of the pan with a damp pastry brush at the point where the sugar syrup meets the sides of the pan. Do this twice during the cooking process to prevent the sugar from crystallizing.
• Cook the mixture over high heat, without stirring, until it turns amber colored, 6-8 minutes. Lower the heat to medium and slowly add the hot cream to the sugar mixture while stirring constantly. The cream will bubble and foam. Continue stirring to make sure there are no lumps. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the butter until it is completely melted. Then stir in the vanilla.
• Transfer the caramel sauce to a bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap, cool slightly, and serve warm.
