Instructions

In a medium saucepan, melt the sliced butter over medium heat.
Add the packed brown sugar and heavy whipping cream to the melted butter, stirring until the mixture comes to a boil.
Allow the sauce to boil without stirring for 3 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and incorporate the vanilla extract and salt.
Pour the sauce into a jar and let it cool before sealing it with a lid.
As it cools, the sauce will thicken. If refrigerated, it will become a soft solid. Reheat in the microwave for about 30 seconds, stir, and enjoy.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use vanilla bean paste instead of extract.
This sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
To use the sauce again, simply reheat it in the microwave before serving.
