Quick and easy salted butter caramel

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup sugar (100 gr)
• 1.5 ounces salted butter (40 gr)
• 7/8 cup cream (200 ml)

Materials

• saucepan, clean jar, spatula

Preparation

• Put the sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Allow it to melt and caramelize, shaking the saucepan occasionally to mix.
• Once the caramel has formed, add the butter all at once (be careful of splashes). Don't take too long to add the butter to avoid burning the caramel. Mix well.
  
• Then pour in the cream, being cautious of splashes, and mix well until the caramel is fully dissolved. Bring to a boil, then let it thicken for about 10 minutes while stirring regularly. The caramel will still be relatively liquid, but don't worry, it will harden as it cools.
• Pour into a clean jar, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before consuming.
  
• And there you have it, your salted butter caramel is ready!
