Drizzle this smooth, sweet sauce on chocolate cake, apple pie, pound cake, or low-fat vanilla ice cream. Store refrigerated in an airtight container for up to five days, and bring to room temperature before using. Omit the cinnamon, if you prefer. Ingredients:
2 cups sugar |
1/2 cup water |
1/4 cup hot water |
6 tablespoons half-and-half |
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt |
1 (3-inch) cinnamon stick |
Directions:
1. Combine sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small, heavy saucepan over high heat; cook until sugar dissolves, stirring as needed to dissolve sugar evenly (about 2 minutes). Cook another 8 minutes or until golden (do not stir). Remove from heat; cool slightly. Carefully stir in 1/4 cup hot water, half-and-half, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add cinnamon stick; cool to room temperature. Discard cinnamon stick. Divide sugar mixture between two sterilized (8-ounce) glass jars. Cover and refrigerate. Serve at room temperature or slightly warmed. |
