This unique recipe elevates the classic caramel sauce with the soothing properties of CBD, turning an ordinary treat into a delightful experience of taste and relaxation.
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Yield: Approximately 2 cups
Ingredients
1 cup granulated sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup heavy cream, room temperature
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup CBD oil (ensure that you have a quality, food-grade CBD oil suitable for ingestion)
Instructions
- Over medium heat, place a heavy-bottomed saucepan and add the sugar. Stir the sugar continuously with a wooden spoon until it melts into a thick, amber-colored liquid.
- Once the sugar is fully melted, add the butter. Note that the mixture will bubble rapidly once the butter is added, so be careful not to splash.
- Stir the butter into the caramel until it is fully melted, about 2-3 minutes.
- Very slowly drizzle in the room temperature heavy cream while stirring. Allow the mixture to boil for a minute and it will rise in the pan.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the sea salt, vanilla extract, and CBD oil. Ensure that the CBD oil is fully incorporated into the sauce.
- Allow the sauce to cool down before using it, and it will thicken up as it cools.
- Note: If you’re new to cooking with CBD, start with a smaller amount and gradually increase it according to your preference and tolerance.
