Have you ever tried making homemade caramel sauce? Have you ever tried making homemade caramel sauce? If not, here’s your sign to give it a try! Once you make this, you will only want the homemade version! It is so simple to make and only takes a few ingredients!

Comment RECIPE and I’ll send the full recipe and instructions to your inbox or see below! 

Homemade Caramel Sauce

1 cup white granulated sugar
1/3 cup water
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons salted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla 

•In a sauce pan add 1 cup sugar and shake the pan to level the sugar. 
•Add 1/3 cup water and DO NOT STIR. You won’t stir until you add the heavy cream (stirring too early can cause sauce to crystallize). 
•Bring sugar and water to a boil over medium heat. Boil until clear…again…DO NOT STIR! 
•Continue boiling on medium high heat until the mixture is caramel in color. This can take about 10 min. Be sure not to let the mixture start to scorch. 
•Once caramel in color, turn off heat and immediately add 3/4 cup cream. 
•Add butter and stir mixture until smooth. The mixture will likely have clumps in the bottom of the pan…just continue to stir until dissolved. 
•Pour caramel sauce into a ball jar with a lid and store in the fridge. Caramel will thicken in fridge. 
•To reheat, microwave for a few seconds and stir! This is a perfect caramel sauce for ice cream, cheesecake and drinks! Enjoy!!

I’ve always loved this quote and it’s so true! Pla I’ve always loved this quote and it’s so true! Planning my summer cutting garden helps to get me through those long winter months. 

If you’ve been thinking about starting your own cut flower garden this year, comment GARDEN and I’ll send you my free “Cut flower garden for beginners” guide. It includes my top five cut flowers to grow from seed, where to purchase the seed, when to plant and more! 

My top five cut flowers that are easy to grow and I always have in my garden are:
Sunflowers
Zinnias
Celosia
Cosmos
Basil (yes, basil is a wonderful cut flower)

What would you add to the list? If I had to add another to my list it would be Dahlias…but, they are divas so didn’t make the cut😂❤️!

Comment RANCH and I’ll send you over the best home Comment RANCH and I’ll send you over the best homemade buttermilk ranch dressing recipe!

Once you try this recipe you won’t ever want the store bought stuff with all the weird ingredients again! 

The full recipe is below…You can adjust the spices based on your preference. I like to mix everything in a wide mouth pint jar with a lid and shake until mixed well. For the best taste, let the ranch dressing sit in the fridge overnight before serving.

If you love ranch dressing, give this a try and share it with a friend ❤️!

Homemade Ranch Dressing 
1/2 cup good Mayo (@dukes_mayonnaise is my go to)
1/2 cup buttermilk 
1/2 cup sour cream 
1 teaspoon dill
1 teaspoon chives
1 teaspoon parsley 
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 
1/2 teaspoon onion powder 
1/4 teaspoons fine sea salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1-3 teaspoons lemon juice…according to taste

Add all ingredients to a wide mouth pint @ballcanning jar and mix well. For best taste and consistency, allow ranch dressing to sit overnight in fridge before serving. 
Enjoy!
