  • 1/4 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  2. Remove syrup from heat. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the butter until melted. Pour milk into a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH 30 seconds. Gradually stir milk into caramel until blended. (Caramel will begin to harden.)
  3. Return caramel to mediumhigh heat, and cook, stirring often, 1 minute, until hardened caramel has dissolved. Remove from heat, and stir in vanilla and salt (makes about 3/4 cup sauce).
  4. Top cake slices with fruit, and drizzle with warm sauce.
  5. Quick tip: Make the caramel sauce ahead of time and store in the fridge for up to 5 days. Serve warm.
