Salted Caramel Apple Slices (makes 6 servings)

½ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons butter
¼ cup half and half or heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
¼ teaspoon salt
2 apples (any kind but Red Delicious)

Combine the brown sugar, butter, half and half or cream, vanilla, and a pinch of salt in a small saucepan and bring to a gentle boil. Cook on low heat, stirring almost constantly, until the mixture thickens, about 8 to 10 minutes.

Remove the cores from the apples and cut each apple into six slices. Spoon the caramel sauce over the apple slices and sprinkle lightly with additional salt.
