Yields: 4-6 servings

Prep Time: 15 mins

Total Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 c.

    sugar

  • 1/2 tsp.

    lemon juice

  • 1

    stick salted butter

  • 3/4 c.

    heavy cream

  • 1 tsp.

    vanilla

  • 2 tsp.

    flaky salt, plus more for topping

Directions

  1. Put the sugar in a saucepan and drizzle 1/3 cup water and the lemon juice evenly on top. Cook over medium-low heat without stirring until the sugar dissolves, then continue cooking, swirling the pan but not stirring, until the sugar is deep amber, 8 to 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to low.

  2. Cut the butter into small pieces and whisk into the sauce, then carefully add the heavy cream and whisk until smooth.

  3. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and flaky salt. The sauce will seem thin, but it will thicken as it cools. Serve over ice cream and sprinkle with more flaky salt.
