How to Make Maple Caramel Sauce For Ice Cream Served At 2013 Obama Inaugural

  1. In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter.
  2. Add the 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  3. Cook, stirring constantly with a whisk, until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture begins to bubble.
  4. Reduce heat to medium and continue to boil for exactly 2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent scorching. The mixture will begin to thicken slightly.
  5. Stir in the 1/4 cup pure maple syrup. Increase heat to medium-high and boil for another 2-4 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce reaches desired thickness and coats the back of a spoon smoothly. (It should be thick enough to cling to a spoon but still pourable.)
  6. Remove from heat immediately. Let cool slightly before serving warm over your favorite ice cream (sour cream ice cream is recommended!).
