Yield Makes 3/4 cup

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon corn syrup
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
6 tablespoons heavy cream
1/2 vanilla bean, split and scraped
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • In a small, deep saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, lemon juice, and 1/4 cup water; place over medium heat. Gently swirl until sugar dissolves. Without stirring, cook mixture until dark amber in color, swirling pan carefully while cooking, about 10 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to low, and slowly add cream, stirring with a wooden spoon. Be careful; the hot caramel will splatter when the cream is added. Add vanilla bean and butter, and stir until smooth.
  • Pass sauce through a fine strainer into a bowl, and set aside to cool until a warm, pourable consistency, 35 to 45 minutes (120 to 140 degrees).
