Easy Caramel Sauce

Not appealing. I didn’t like the taste or the texture. It was dry and crusty. Very grainy. It didn’t take anything like caramel either.

I made it vegan by using almond milk and plant based butter. I also threw in a handful of semi sweet chocolate chips I had leftover. I only boiled it for 3 minutes because I wanted to use it as more of a glaze for some coconut bars. Tastes great and it’s so shiny! I can literally see my reflection in it.

I’ve just made this sauce but used condensed milk by mistake. I added a pinch of salt and a pinch of nutmeg. I think it’s possibly the best caramel sauce I’ve ever tasted.

Easy & good. It’s good with apple slices too!!

Easy? Yes. Caramel sauce? No. This is not caramel sauce. This is butterscotch sauce. Totally different. Also, when cooled, the mixture hardened. Since I followed the recipe, the only thing I can think of is I cooked it too long which was about 5 minutes.

It’s more like butterscotch candy but soft. Delicious

This is butterscotch sauce not caramel sauce. The main difference between the two is the sugar. Butterscotch sauce uses brown sugar and caramel sauce uses white sugar. Caramel sauce is finicky to make because of the crystallization. I tried this recipe but it wasn’t good. Too much sugar and it should be made with heavy cream, not milk. 1 cup of brown sugar and 2/3 c heavy cream will make a nice sauce flavor and thickness,or cut back the brown sugar to 1/2 cup might work with milk.

It was a little grainy, but I didn’t have enough milk and I was afraid of overcooking it. I did enjoy the flavor and my leftovers I added to a chocolate oat bar, which turned out fantastic! I am trying it again with the proper amount of milk.

It actually turned into caramel fudge candy after it cooled off but it was delicious.

Taste great. Just a little thin

Very rich I used it on ice cream. I will make it again.

The recipe is like my upside down cake very yummy. Easy to make

Great recipe

The last time I tried to make caramel it didn’t work but I just tried this recipe and it worked amazing and it was super easy. I did half the recipe and left it on the heat for about 5ish minutes.

Most of the reviewers said this took extra time to cook. I cooked it one minute more than recommended and it was a perfect consistency, until it hit the ice cream, where it turned rock hard. Heated it is fine, but not cold. It is also loaded with calories. Yes, I know, it is a caramel sauce. However I found a much lighter version at Taste of Home that only calls for 1 tablespoon of butter and is great for ice cream. It is thickened with a little corn starch so doesn’t get rock hard. The flavor of this is great, it just didn’t work for my application.

I’ve tried dozens of caramel sauce recipes and I’ve found every single one to be difficult, with many steps and unnecessary ingredients or easy but it simply doesn’t taste like caramel. This is the best recipe I’ve found so far. The taste and and texture is spot on and the recipe couldn’t get easier. I can whip this up in a few minutes to add to coffee or tea and it tastes just like the Torani salted caramel sauce. I added a pinch of salt because I like a salted caramel. Follow the recipe exactly and it’ll turn our splendid! 5 stars, highly recommend!

Very easy to make, and tasty.

Made this for our culinary club and was so good, people asked me for the recipe

Very easy to make and so delicious. Not good for your waistline though so only eat occasionally!

I made this caramel, and it turned out great. I used half and half for the milk part. I doubled the recipe, so it took about seven minutes to thicken. I cool it down, store it in a jar and put in the refrigerator. I will make it again for sure.

The taste for Caramel is spot on! Not too sweet but yet creamy. Of course if you want it thicker cook it longer, if you prefer it thin cook less. Sauces like this are not forgiving… follow the cook time instructions, the recipe is correct.
