Lower Fat Caramel Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups brown sugar
4 tablespoons flour
1 cup water (boiling)
1 dash salt
2 tablespoons cream
2 tablespoons butter (not margarine)
vanilla (to taste)

Preparation

Mix sugar and flour together in a sauce pan, blend well. Add the boiling water and the salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, for 6-8 minutes, or until it thickens and starts to come away from the edges of the pan. If it is too thick, add a little more water. Remove from heat and add the butter, the cream, and the vanilla (I used about 1/2 tsp.). Stir until thoroughly combined.
