Caramel Sauce
Total time: 15 to 30 minutes

Prep. time: a few minutes
Cooking time: 15 minutes
 

 
Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients
For 6 servings

- 100 g (3 1/2 oz.) caster sugar
- 75 g (5 Tbsp.) softened butter
- 400 ml (1 cup + 10 Tbsp.) crème fraîche
- 1 vanilla bean

With rum
- 1 Tbsp. aged rum
Method
  1. In a heavy saucepan, heat the sugar, butter and the seeds scraped from the vanilla bean over low heat, stirring constantly.
  2. Once the sugar has turned a nice caramel color, remove the pan from the heat and incorporate the cream.
  3. Return the pan to medium heat and continue cooking for 5 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the caramel is shiny and smooth.
  4. Strain if desired.

If you wish to flavor the sauce with rum, add it last so that the flavor doesn't dissipate.
