    Last year my salted caramel cheesecake was a huge hit at both Thanksgiving and Christmas, so I wanted to share a post on how to make the caramel sauce by itself. This is super easy and requires sugar, butter, and heavy cream. That’s it. Three ingredients to make the worlds best dessert sauce.

    You can do so many things with homemade caramel, you can drizzle it over ice cream, brownies, cakes, cupcakes, cheesecakes, etc.
