Serves
Makes 2 cups
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
- 1 teaspoon fleur de sel
- 1¼ cups granulated sugar
- ¼ cup light corn syrup
- ¼ cup water
Procedure
This recipe hardens to a chewy, caramel candy stage. We use this caramel for dipping our apples and in making turtles. It also can be poured onto a parchment lined and buttered small baking sheet and cooled for at least two hours, cut into pieces and wrapped in parchment wrappers.
In a small saucepan add cream, butter and salt and bring just to a simmer, stirring to combine over medium-high heat. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, bring sugar, corn syrup and water to a boil, stirring just until the sugar is dissolved. Continue boiling without stirring until the mixture is a rich amber color and reaches between 340°F to 349°F on a candy thermometer. Remove the caramel from the heat and carefully stir in the cream mixture. The caramel will bubble up so be careful. Stir with a whisk to blend. If any bits of caramel have solidified, set the pan back over very low eat and stir gently until they melt.
