Ingredients:

1 cup sugar

1 1/4 cups heavy cream

1/2-3/4 teaspoons sea salt

1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Directions:

1. In a large heavy pot, spread sugar in a thin, even layer. Turn burner to medium and heat until parts of the sugar begin to bubble and liquefy.

2. Gently stir, making sure un-melted sugar comes in contact with the greatest heat source. Continue, stirring occasionally   until all the sugar is melted.

3. Meanwhile, heat cream in the microwave or over the stove.

4. When the sugar is completely melted and has turned an amber color, remove from heat. Whisk in 1/2 the warmed cream. The mixture will bubble. Whisk in remaining cream until smooth.
