Perfect Salted Caramel for Macaron Fillings 🍬
This smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced salted caramel will elevate your macarons to a whole new level. Here’s my favorite foolproof recipe:
Ingredients:
• 200g granulated sugar
• 90g unsalted butter (cubed)
• 120ml heavy cream (room temperature)
• 1 tsp sea salt (adjust to taste)
Instructions:
1️⃣ In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt the sugar over medium heat, stirring occasionally until it turns a golden amber color.
2️⃣ Carefully add the butter, whisking constantly until fully melted.
3️⃣ Slowly pour in the heavy cream (be careful of splattering) and continue whisking until smooth.
4️⃣ Remove from heat and stir in the sea salt.
5️⃣ Allow the caramel to cool completely before piping into your macarons.
Tips:
✨ Don’t rush the sugar melting process—patience is key!
✨ For a deeper flavor, use flaky sea salt for a final sprinkle.
✨ Store leftover caramel in an airtight jar in the fridge.
