Apple Bourbon Caramel:

• 1 cup salted butter
• 2 1/4 cups brown sugar
• 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
• 1 cup light corn syrup
• 5 tablespoons apple bourbon
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon salt

1. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, pour in sweetened condensed milk, corn syrup, and add in brown sugar.
2. Using a whisk or rubber spatula, stir all ingredients over medium heat until it starts to simmer. Scrape the sides and bottom regularly.
3. Let the sauce simmer until the temperature reaches 200-205 degrees. We are just making a sauce and so we need to simmer it long enough to get the granulation out, but not take it to soft ball stage.
4. Once it has reached temperature, remove from heat and carefully stir in the vanilla, apple bourbon, and salt. Stir it until it is all well combined.
5. Let cool and then pour into jars for storage. Shelf stable for up to 1 month.
