Continue cooking, without stirring, until mixture turns a deep honey color, about 8 minutes more. Remove from heat, and stir in butter until melted. Gradually stir in cream and salt until mixture is smooth. Pour mixture into a large bowl, and let cool for 30 minutes.

Notes
- Pie can be made a day ahead and refrigerated. Let it stand at room temperature for 20 minutes before serving.
