Left over salted caramel?

Just made some salted caramel macaroons and have a big bowl full left. What else can I make with it to stop myself going back to the fridge every few minutes with a spoon :o?

And how long will it keep?
:hello:

    Oooh Salted Caramel frosting is beautiful, make some cupcakes and frost them with it!

    I make it by combining 600g Icing Sugar, 300g Cream Cheese, 300g Salted Butter and then as much salted caramel to taste.

    I think this can be frozen too or you could halve the quantities as this would make a lot!

    Hijacking slightly sorry but would you be able to share the recipe Wierddumpling? Sounds gorgeous.

    Thank you for the website Drachenfach, it looks a lovely site with lots of recipes. Not that I need more.

  • 250g icing sugar
    80ml water
    120g crème fraiche (full fat, who are we kidding :))
    200g salted butter

    Place water and sugar in a saucepan and heat on a low heat til the syrup turns golden brown, this can take awhile and try not to stir as this causes crystals to form.

    Add the crème fraiche a little at a time stirring constantly.

    Take off the heat and add the butter, whisk til smooth.

    Place in the fridge to cool. (and leave it alone, put away the spoon) :)

    Thanks for the replys those brownies look good :drool:

    I'm struggling to get past the idea of being in my beloved dressing gown on the sofa, phone off the hook and OH out, with the bowl and a spoon.
    Were we saying that was bad?

    Sorry, still there. On a more useful note, could you make some ice cream with it using the condensed milk method so you don't have to churn it?
