Tools:

  • Heavy Saucepan
  • Wooden Spoon
  • Microwavable Container
  • Stainless Steel or other heat proof Bowl

Method:

  1. In a heavy saucepan, bring sugar, corn syrup, and water to a boil.
  2. In a microwavable container, warm the heavy cream and butter until hot, but not boiling.
  3. Continue to cook the sugar mixture without stirring until it reaches a deep amber color.  The caramel should just begin to smoke, but not burn.
  4. Remove the caramel from the heat immediately and carefully stir in the cream and butter mixture with a wooden spoon.  (Use caution, as this mixture will sputter and can cause burns).
  5. Pour the caramel into the bowl to cool.  Once at room temperature, this fluid caramel will be piped into the chocolate-lined molds.
