1Add vanilla to heavy cream so that it is ready to go.
-
2Put granulated sugar and water in large heavy bottom saucepan and put on medium heat.
-
3Warning: Do not stir so that the mixture doesn't crystallize. If it does, just keep on medium-low heat.
-
4If a bit of crystallization around the edge of the pan, take a silicone brush and dip in water and wipe away.
-
5Note: Can keep a lid on the pot to trap the steam to prevent crystallization.
-
6Take pan off of heat once the caramel mixture turns to a nice amber color.
-
7Stir in vanilla and cream mixture a little bit at a time to avoid splattering. Add more a little bit a time, like tempering chocolate.
-
8Pour into nice heat proof large bowl to let it cool.
-
9Use it to drizzle or to flavor butter cream.

10Warning: Don't put caramel hot into the fridge to cool it down because it is going to bring the temperature of the fridge up and put other food in the danger zone.
