Ingredients
- 4 tablespoon unsalted butter
- ¼ cup golden sweetener
- 8 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon blackstrap molasses
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a saucepan on medium low heat. Once melted simmer on low heat until browned (about 5-10 minutes).
- Whisk in the heavy cream, golden sweetener, molasses and salt until ingredients are combined and dissolved. Simmer on low heat for 20 minutes without stirring. Do not touch it. After 20 minutes, give it a stir and remove from the heat. The sauce may seem very runny but as it cools it will thicken up.
- Once cooled, place in a sealed jar and keep in the fridge for 1 hour. It will thicken up in the fridge and be ready to use after the hour.

Notes
Top Tip: Never walk away from the stove. Caramel can go from smooth and creamy to burnt very quickly.
