Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and heavy cream.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir constantly with a whisk to dissolve the sugar and to avoid sticking.
Once the mixture starts to gently bubble, reduce the heat to low and continue stirring for 5-7 minutes, or until the mixture thickens slightly.
Remove the saucepan from heat and add the butter and vanilla extract.
Whisk until the butter melts completely and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Let the Dutch Honey cool slightly before transferring it to a jar or serving dish.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat gently when needed.
