Method:

Place the sugar and water in a heavy bottomed saucepan over low heat. 

Cook without stirring until sugar dissolves. 

Use a wet pastry brush to wash down any sugar crystals from the sides of the pan – this prevents the sauce from crystallizing.

Increase the heat to medium-high and continue cooking until the syrup turns a caramel colour (this requires some patience, but keep watching it – after ages of no change in colour it will suddenly change color)
 
If you have a sugar thermometer this is at around 174°C.

Remove the pan from the heat and quickly stir in the cream. It will bubble up!

Cook for another 1 –  2 mins stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until smooth.

Remove from heat and add butter, vanilla extract and salt. Stir well until smooth.

Allow to cool for 10 mins. The sauce can be refrigerated in a jar and gently warmed in a bowl of warm water before serving.
