Rum Butterscotch Sauce

Courses: Dessert, Sauces

Recipe Ingredients

1 1/2 cups 297g / 10ozGranulated sugar
1 1/4 cups 410g / 14ozLight corn syrup
1/2 cup 99g / 3.5ozButter - (1 stick)
1 cup 237mlWhipping cream
1/2 teaspoon 2.5mlVanilla extract
3 tablespoons 45mlLight rum

Recipe Instructions

Place the sugar, corn syrup and butter in a small, heavy saucepan and boil over medium-high heat until it reaches 245 degrees, about 15 minutes; the coating on a spoon dipped into the mixture and then in cold water will have a gummy consistency.

Stir in the cream, return to a boil and simmer until thickened, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and rum. Let cool and then refrigerate until use. This sauce keeps well in the refrigerator but should be taken out an hour ahead, or briefly zapped in the microwave, to soften it before use.

This recipe yields about 2 cups.
