DEE-licious! Like gourmet caramel sauce from a fine restaurant. I used walnuts rather than pecans and it was perfect!

Truly, the best! This is rich, silky and smooth. My kids have been enjoying this as an apple dip, but it's even better with bananas!

Excellent! I used part of this for the CARAMEL APPLE BARS II, also from the AR website, and the other part as topping for a huge bowl of Schwan's vanilla ice cream (our family fave). I did have to return the pan to a low heat after adding the evapo milk, just to get the suagr clumps to dissolve, but it was worth the trouble for sure.

Wow. This is soooo creamy, buttery, caramelly, and yummy! I didn't have any large marshmallows, only mini ones, so I used 6 mini marshmallows for 1 large marshmallow for a total of 96 mini marshmallows! Not sure if that is right or not, but it was very good!

This sauce is out of this world. I was making better than sex cake II form this site but I didnt have any caramel topping so my husband whipped this up and left out the pecans. Nothing short of fantastic. He had no problems with mixing the milk in after it was cool. I will never buy that jarred sundae topping again.

I did not have marshmallows so I used a jar of marshmallow creme. The mixture was so thick and gooey I had a hard time deciding if it was boiling or not, so I may have undercooked it. It turned out lighter than the photo so I probably didn't need the full jar of MM creme but it tastes delicious. If you have heavy cream, there's a recipe under Sticky Date Pudding on this site that just calls for cream, brown sugar and butter. It tastes just like this but is easier to make.

The recipe was really hard to follow and the end product was quite disappointing. Will not make this again.

Letting this cool for 5 minutes before adding milk is a mistake in my opinion. It got kinda stiff for me and when adding the milk later it turns into a soupy mess meaning you have to add more marshmallows. I thought hey I can do this, maybe others just did something wrong. Nah. To be such a simple recipe, it doesn't come together correctly. I have never rated anything low as fare as preparing anything goes but I have to rate it a 1. But the taste is alright, I expected more from the reviews which is why I chose to try this. So I give it a 2 for taste. Not as rich as I was hoping for. Just not what I was looking for so I will look for a different recipe that meets my expectations.

Our favorite restaurant serves a fabulous bread pudding with a caramel/praline-type sauce. My own bread pudding is my hubby's favorite but he was not too happy with my sauce. This sundae topping duplicates the taste of the one in the restaurant. OH MY MY MY...this is off the charts! Many, many thanks for a fantastic recipe which is in my permanent recipe file!

I have been on a caramel kick this Christmas and decided to try this caramel sauce. I doubled this receipe and added the milk hot as a reviewer suggested. It just didn't taste like caramel and was too runny. Added more marshmallows and recooked it. Turned out much better but not a keeper for me. I'll fiddle around with caramel sauce until I find the perfect mix - and I'll share it!

This tasted really good -- however -- I had quite a bit of trouble with the recipe. I cooked my brown sugar/syrup mixture according to the recipe, cooled 5 minutes and then poured in the evaporated milk. I blended, and blended...and blended some more and it never came together. Not wanting to throw away this pecan sugary goodness I put it back on the stove in hopes that it could be saved. I turned it on med/high heat and let the chunky sugar pieces dissolve. Then, it was too runny :o( I threw six more marshmallows into the mix and finally, caramel-y, pecan goodness. I give it a four for taste and a two for an easy to follow recipe.

This is the absolute best caramel sauce I have ever tasted! I made it to go over Caramel Macchiato Cheesecake (also found on this site) and I omitted the nuts. I used the remainder on ice cream and talk about good! Yum, Yum! -19/09/07 *Update: 16/10/09 - I have made this recipe countless times since I first found it and I have had trouble on occasions with the brown sugar not melting completely. When this happens I just pour the finished sauce into my blender and let it run for a minute - smooth sauce! This truly is the best caramel sauce I have come across and I use it for almost any recipe which calls for caramel topping. It is also great with some peanut butter blended in as well - but not too much to overpower the caramel flavour (just eyeball it) It thickens up a great deal with PB in it but is so delicious either way!

This is SSSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOO good. Even though mine didn't turn out, it was really runny (all my fault), I poured it over my vanilla ice cream and it was absolutely delicious. Even better than the store bought caramel. I probably could've just drank the rest MMMMMMMMMMM.
