Ingredients

• 1 cup granulated sugar
• ¼ cup water
• 6 tablespoons salted butter, cut into pieces
• ½ cup heavy cream, at room temperature
• 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt

Directions

• Add the sugar and water to a 3-quart saucepan set over medium heat. Stir until combined. Do Not Stir Again! Simply swirl the saucepan until the sugar has melted and turns a light amber color. If you use a candy or instant read thermometer, the mixture should register 350º at this point.
• Carefully add your butter and whisk until all the butter has melted.
• Remove the saucepan from the heat and slowly pour in the cream, whisking constantly until all of the cream has been incorporated. Whisk in the sea salt and set aside to cool.
• Allow to cool about 5 minutes and then pour into an airtight container for storing in the refrigerator.
