Ingredients:
Directions:
1
Mix the water and sugar in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan
2
Cover and cook over low heat until the sugar dissolves
3
Increase the heat and boil uncovered until the sugar turns a medium brown, about 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon
4
Watch it carefully at the end, as it will go from caramel to burnt very quickly
5
Stand back to avoid splattering, and gradually add the cream and the seeds scraped from the vanilla bean (or vanilla extract)
6
Simmer until the caramel dissolves and the sauce is smooth and thick, about 2 minutes
7
Serve warm, or add another 1/4 cup of heavy cream and serve room temperature
