First, pour the whole can coconut milk into a bowl and whisk it for a minute until water and cream are well combined.
Measure out the amount of coconut milk that is needed (1/4 cup) and add to a deep dish pan and set on the stove.
1/4 cup canned full fat coconut milk
Next, pour the remaining coconut milk that is not going to be used into a glass container with a lid and store in the fridge for another use.
1/2 cup maple sugar, 1/2 tsp instant coffee granules, 1/8 - 1/4 tsp pink salt
Finally, add maple sugar, instant coffee, and salt to coconut milk in the pan on the stove. Heat until boiling 3 – 6 minutes.
You are looking for the spoon to go through the middle of the caramel as it should leave a line (see picture).
Allow the caramel to change to a darker color.
When it changes color remove from heat. If it’s still too thick just add 1/8 cup of coconut milk (from the glass jar in the fridge) at a time until desired consistency. Makes approximately 1/2 a cup
