Author: Christina Dennis
Recipe type: Dessert
Ingredients
- 14 oz can of evaporated milk
- ½ cup butter, melted
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ½ tsp lemon juice
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 tbsp coarse sea salt
Instructions
- Inside your slow cooker, place a glass or oven proof dish. I use a glass loaf pan. You will be creating a double broiler.
- In a bowl, mix all of the ingredients together.
- Pour into the glass loaf pan.
- Into the slow cooker, pour enough water until it is even with the caramel mixture. You will want the water to boil around the pan cooking the caramel.
- Turn the slow cooker on high.
- The longer you cook the caramel, the darker and thicker it will be. For a light, thinner sauce cook for 4-5 hours. For a medium sauce, cook for 6-7 hours. For a dark thick sauce cook for 9-10 hours. I cooked mine for about 6 ½ hours.
- Remove the caramel from the slow cooker. Whisk for about a minute to mix it up.
- Serve warm.
- To store, put into jars and refrigerate for up to 1 month. You can also store at room temperature for about 1 week.
Enjoy!
