Brew 8 ounces of your preferred coffee using a coffee maker or French press.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 1 cup of milk and 2 tablespoons of caramel sauce. Stir continuously to ensure the caramel dissolves and the mixture does not scorch.
Once the milk is heated through and slightly steaming (do not boil), add 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar and 0.5 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
Pour the brewed coffee into a large mug.
Held over the mug, carefully pour the caramel milk mixture into the coffee, stirring gently to combine.
If desired, top the caramel coffee with a generous dollop of whipped cream.
Drizzle additional caramel syrup over the whipped cream for an extra-special touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy your indulgent caramel coffee.
