Ingredients

• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 4 cups Assorted dippers (e.g., apple slices, banana chunks, marshmallows, vanilla wafers)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, add the granulated sugar and spread it evenly across the bottom.

Step 2

Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the sugar without stirring until it begins to melt around the edges, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Using a heatproof spatula or spoon, gently stir the melted sugar into the unmelted portions, continuing until all the sugar is fully melted and turns a deep amber color. This should take 5-7 minutes. Be careful not to burn the caramel.

Step 4

Immediately add the unsalted butter, stirring continuously until fully melted and combined with the sugar.

Step 5

Slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring. The caramel may bubble vigorously, so proceed with caution.

Step 6

Once the bubbling subsides, continue stirring until the caramel becomes smooth and glossy, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 7

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt.

Step 8

Transfer the caramel to a fondue pot or heatproof serving bowl. Keep warm using a low flameless heat source or by setting the bowl over hot water.

Step 9

Arrange the assorted dippers on a platter and serve alongside the caramel fondue. Let guests dip their favorites and enjoy!
