Ingredients
- 200 g Dark brown sugar
- 100 g Unsalted butter
- 250 ml Heavy cream (double cream)
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the dark brown sugar and unsalted butter over medium heat.
Step 2
Stir the mixture gently as the butter melts and the sugar starts to dissolve, creating a thick syrupy consistency.
Step 3
Once the butter and sugar are fully combined, gradually pour in the heavy cream while continuing to stir.
Step 4
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, allowing it to bubble slightly while stirring continuously to prevent burning.
Step 5
Simmer for about 3-4 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly and becomes glossy.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract for extra depth of flavor.
Step 7
Allow the sauce to cool slightly before serving. It will thicken further as it cools.
Step 8
Serve warm drizzled over sticky toffee pudding, ice cream, or your favorite dessert.
