Homemade Caramel Sauce Recipe

Once you discover how frugalicious and fast it is to make your own caramel sauce, you'll never buy the stuff in the jar again. Drizzle it on ice cream, pecan pie a la mode or any dessert that needs a pop of caramel! I'm warning you, this stuff is so good you just might eat it with a spoon!

I’ve never made it myself but this sounds too simple not to try! I’ll be putting it on everything!

Wow! I’m embarrassed to say I would have never known the first thing of making caramel, but this sounds so easy even a novice like myself could do it. Thank you so much for sharing!

Love the recipe! We NEVER buy caramel out of a jar and use dark muscovado as the base and it always works a treat!
