Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup water
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water over medium heat. Stir gently until the sugar dissolves, then stop stirring.
Step 2
Allow the sugar mixture to boil undisturbed for 6-8 minutes or until it turns a deep amber color. Watch closely to prevent burning.
Step 3
Remove the saucepan from heat and carefully whisk in the unsalted butter until melted. Be cautious, as the mixture will bubble up.
Step 4
Slowly add the heavy cream while whisking continuously. Return the mixture to low heat, if needed, and whisk until smooth.
Step 5
Stir in the dark chocolate chips until fully melted and incorporated into the caramel sauce.
Step 6
Add the fresh raspberries to the saucepan, using the back of a spoon to gently mash some of the berries, releasing their juices into the sauce.
Step 7
Stir in the pure vanilla extract and salt. Simmer the sauce on low heat for 2-3 minutes to blend the flavors.
Step 8
Remove the sauce from heat and allow it to cool slightly before serving. The sauce will thicken as it cools.
Step 9
Serve warm or at room temperature over your favorite desserts, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently before use.
