The proverbial expression 'a watched pot never boils' refers to the feeling time seems to go slower when you are anxiously waiting for something to happen.

Steps to make A watched pot never burns caramel..:
- Prepare chocolate dough: In bowl of an electric mixer, combine the butter, confectioners' sugar and cocoa. Beat until smooth. Add egg yolk and vanilla, and beat until blended. Add flour into dough mixture. Beat on low speed until combined. Press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-10-inch tart pan.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake tart crust for 15 minutes.
- Prepare caramel filling: In a large saucepan, bring sugar, water and corn syrup to a boil. Stir or swirl the pan occasionally, until mixture is a medium amber color, about 12 minutes. **watch it towards the end! Remove from the heat. Quickly whisk in the butter, cream, sour cream and salt until smooth (mixture will bubble up). Pour hot caramel into tart, and allow to cool and set, at least 1 hour.
- Prepare chocolate glaze: Place chocolate in a bowl and cream in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 30 second increments stirring inbetween until melted. Pour chocolate over tart, tilting tart for even coverage. Refrigerate until tart is set, at least one hour, then sprinkle with a few granules salt and cocoa nibs. Keep refrigerated until serving.
One easy method is to fill your pot with enough warm water to submerge the caramel and add a little fabric softener. Finally, rinse your pot with cool water. Alternatively, wait until the caramel has dried on your pot. Hot sugar burns you and then sticks to your skin until it cools, making the burn that much worse. Ice water is also useful if you start seeing crystals form on the side of your caramel.
