Salted Caramel Sauce…Out of all the dessert sauces that are available in the market, Salted Caramel Sauce continues to be my favourite one as it has a subtle flavour, that easily complements the desserts or shakes for which we use it, plus it is very convenient and less time taking to prepare it at home. After buying it for like a zillion times from a supermarket, this time, I have made it at home and the result has turned out to be nothing but awesome.
Salted Caramel Sauce is a very versatile sauce which can be used on top of your ice creams, or dip the apple slices or even make milk shakes.
This is very easy to make at home and can be refrigerated for about a month once made. Here is the simple recipe to make your own salted caramel sauce. Do prepare it and use it while serving Vanilla Bean Ice Cream and enjoy relishing the combination.
