Grease 2 donut pans (12 regular sized donuts) and fill with batter 2/3 full.
Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes until toothpick inserted towards middle of donut comes out clean.
Allow donuts to cool 3-5 minutes in pan, then remove to wire rack or heatproof surface to cool completely.
SALTED CARAMEL:
In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the sugar and cold water, stirring to combine.
Allow this to cook while stirring, until mixture is a deep amber color.
While sugar and water are cooking, warm the cream in a small saucepan over low heat.
When your sugar/water (caramel) is ready, stir in butter until completely melted.
Once butter is melted, drizzle warm cream into the caramel slowly.
Allow caramel mixture to boil for 1-2 minutes.
Remove from heat and add vanilla and salt.
Allow to cool completely before using.
Caramel can be stored in the refrigerator for 2 weeks.
