- 1 cup sugar
- 4 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- ½ teaspoon lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon salt, kosher or sea
- Combine the sugar, water, and the corn syrup in a medium saucepan and stir over medium heat to dissolve sugar.
- Cook for 3 minutes over medium heat with the lid on.
- Take off the lid and increase the heat to medium-high, and bring to a boil.
- Swirl (do not stir) the liquid around the pan so that the caramel doesn’t burn.
- Keep cooking until the caramel turns an amber color then remove from the heat and let stand for about 30 seconds. Set your timer! Don't let it sit too long! - This is the trickiest part of the recipe. It make take a little practice to find the right amount of amber color.
- Carefully pour the heavy cream into the mixture in a slow steady stream while mixing with a whisk. The mixture will bubble up significantly and is very hot.
- Add the butter, lemon juice, and salt. Stir until combined.
- Stirring occasionally, allow to cool until thick like molasses and warm to the touch, about 20 minutes.
