For a richer caramel flavor, use dark brown sugar. Be careful not to overcook the caramel, as it can become hard and brittle. If you prefer a thinner creamer, you can use whole milk instead of half-and-half, though the final result will be less creamy. Store the creamer in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Shake well before each use, as some separation may occur. For a salted caramel version, add a pinch of sea salt along with the vanilla extract.

Step
1 mins
Stir in 1/2 cup of the half-and-half, the brown sugar, and the corn syrup. (1 minute)

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat slightly to maintain a gentle boil. (3 minutes)

Boil without stirring, until a small amount of the syrup, when dropped into cold water, forms a soft ball that flattens when removed. This should take approximately 5-7 minutes.
