Burnt Sugar Butter Cream

1/2 Cup Sugar
6 Tablespoon Water
4 Egg yolks
2 Sticks Butter
1/2 Cup Caramel sauce

In a saucepan, over high heat, add the sugar and water. Bring the mixture to
a boil and cook until the mixture reaches 115 degrees, soft ball stage.
Using a mixer, fitted with paddle, beat the egg yolks. With the machine
running, slowly add the syrup. Beat until the mixture is thick and cool,
about 5 minutes. Add the butter, a tablespoon at a time and beat well. Add
the caramel sauce and beat well. Remove the frosting from the mixer. This
recipe yields 2 1/4 cups.
