- ½ cup cold water
- 1 cup thickened cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract

Add sugar and water to a medium saucepan over medium-high heat and stir to combine.
Cook without stirring until the sugar has turned a deep golden brown, approximately 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat the cream and vanilla over low heat in a small saucepan. When the sugar is ready, gradually whisk in the cream. Continue simmering until the mixture is smooth, about 3 minutes.
Remove from heat and whisk in the butter and salt.
Pour into sterilised jars while still hot and seal. Keep refrigerated for up to 1 month.
