Combine caramel ingredients in a microwave-safe container.
Microwave for 3 to 4 minutes until light amber in colour. Check every 30 seconds after the 2-minute mark and stop once caramel looks done. Better to stop cooking earlier rather than later. Try not to overcook the caramel.
Do not allow to turn dark as the syrup may have a burnt taste.
Swirl the container to distribute the caramel evenly on the bottom.
Be careful as the container and the caramel will be hot.
Set aside to allow caramel to harden.
