   Add the cream and the sugar and cook the mixture, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved.

   Bring the mixture to a boil over moderate heat and boil it, without stirring, for 8 minutes.

4. 4

   Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla and the salt.

5. 5

   Serve the sauce hot over ice cream.

6. 6

   The sauce keeps, covered and chilled, for 1 month.
