Butterscotch Sauce
From the Kitchen of: Pepper
Comments: Serve it over ice cream or over grilled pineapple slices or with both together, or as a dessert waffle topping, along with sliced bananas and chopped walnuts.
1 | cup | packed light brown sugar |
1/3 | cup | heavy cream |
3 | tablespoons | unsalted butter |
2 | tablespoons | dark corn syrup |
2 | tablespoons | Scotch whisky |
1 | teaspoon | vanilla extract |

- In a medium saucepan, slowly bring the brown sugar, cream, butter, and corn syrup to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly to dissolve the sugar. Boil gently, stirring often, until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the Scotch and vanilla until blended.
- Let cool slightly before using. (The sauce can be refrigerated for up to 1 week. Warm gently before serving.)
