Chocolate Cake With Salted Caramel Sauce
Prep Time 2 minutes
Cook Time 7 minutes
Total Time 9 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 Cup of Sugar
  • 6 Tablespoons of unsalted butter
  • 1/2 Cup of heavy cream
  • 1 Teaspoon of Kosher salt.

Instructions

  • In a small sauce pan over a medium heat, place sugar in it. Stir occasionally while sugar is melting.
  • You don't want the sugar to burn, but you definitely want the slightly brown color to come to fruition.
  • Once you get the melted sugar to begin a very small boil, remove from heat and slowly add in the butter a little bit at a time. The caramel sauce will "hiss" at you and bubble a little bit.
  • Stir in butter thoroughly.
  • Replace on heat and bring to a small boil again (about 1 -2 minutes), and then add in your heavy cream a little bit at a time.
  • Again, the sauce will bubble and hiss at you.
  • Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  • While the sauce is still slightly warm and malleable, take a table spoon and scoop a portion on top of the cake.
  • Finish with a sprinkling of Kosher salt.
