Emeril's Caramel Drizzle Sauce

In a small heavy-bottomed saucepan combine sugar and water; bring the mixture to a boil, stirring often.

Cook stirring occasionally until the mixture is a deep caramel color and has the consistency of a thin syrup (about 10-15 minutes) remove from heat and stir in the whipping cream; return saucepan to high heat and boil the sauce until it regains the consistency of a thick syrup (about 2 minutes); cool.

The sauce can be refrigerated until ready to use (allow it to reach room temperature before drizzling).
