Instructions

1
In a medium saucepan, combine the water and sugar.
2
Place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Do not stir the mixture.
3
Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the sugar mixture starts to turn an amber color.
4
When the caramel starts to smoke slightly, turn off the heat.
5
Carefully and slowly whisk in the heavy cream. The mixture will bubble up vigorously.
6
Return the pan to low heat and add the salt and cubed butter.
7
Whisk until the butter is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.
8
Bring the heat back to high and let the sauce cook for another 3 minutes, whisking occasionally.
9
Turn off the heat. The caramel sauce is now ready.
10
Serve warm over scoops of vanilla ice cream.
