Caramel Sauce

1-1/2 cups light brown sugar, packed
2/3 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
 
Combine the sugar, corn syrup, and butter in a saucepan over low heat.  Stir frequently until the sugar has dissolved.  Continue cooking until the mixture forms a firm ball in cold water (242 deg. on a candy thermometer).  Remove mixture from the heat; add the cream and vanilla.  Stir to blend.  Cool.  Serve over ice cream or warm apple pie.
 
Makes about 1-1/2 cups sauce.
