Caramel Sauce

Ingredients:
sugars, granulated
water, bottled, generic

Directions:
In medium-sized saucepan combine sugar and 1/2 cup of the water.
Use a pastry brush dipped in cold water to wash down any sugar granules from the pot's sides.
Cook over a moderate heat, swirling the pan occasionally, until the color is dark brown and the mixture has the distinctive fragrance of caramel, about 10 to 15 minutes.
Pour caramel into a 9-inch round cake pan, coating the bottom and the sides, some caramel will be left over.
Swirl to coat evenly.
Slowly and carefully add the remaining 3/4 cup of water to the caramel left in the saucepan.
Bring to a boil and cook over moderate heat until the caramel dissolves, about 5 minutes.
Occasionally stir and brush down the sides with the pastry brush dipped in cold water to prevent crystallization.
Set this caramel sauce aside to chill until serving time.
