In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat until fully liquefied.

Step 2

Add the granulated sugar and light brown sugar to the melted butter, stirring thoroughly to combine.

Step 3

Pour in the heavy cream and continue to stir, ensuring the mixture becomes smooth and starts to thicken.

Step 4

Lower the heat slightly and let the mixture gently simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

Step 5

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt for added flavor depth.

Serve immediately or let the glaze set for a more firm texture before slicing and serving the cake.
