Caramel Dipping Sauce
Buttery, delicious caramel sauce, perfect for dipping apples.
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup corn syrup
1/3 cup butter
2/3 cups whipping cream
Combine brown sugar, sugar, corn syrup and butter in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring often. When it gets to a boil that cannot be stirred down, cook 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in whipping cream. Return to heat until mixture comes back to a boil and cook one more minute. Pour into pint jars.
One way to know when this is done after you add the whipping cream is to look at the back of the spoon and if you still see sugar grains it is not done. When they disappear from the back of the spoon it is done. No candy thermometer needed.
Use this as a dip for apples, pineapple, pears, buttery cookies or graham crackers, etc. It is also good over ice cream.
