Best Ever Hot Caramel Sauce

We love this yummy sauce best over vanilla ice cream, but it's also great on hot apple pie! My kids pick Hot Caramel Sundaes over birthday cake every year! This sauce makes great teacher and/or Christmas gifts (pour in 1/2 pint jars and tie with festive ribbon). Remind them it needs to be refrigerated!
