Butterscotch Sauce image

Butterscotch sauce takes its character from brown sugar. The sauce contains cream and, yes, butter, and both strike round, rich, pleasingly burnished notes. Butterscotch will embrace a foundation ice cream flavor -- classics like chocolate, vanilla and coffee -- with abandon.

Time 40m

Yield 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 1/2 cups heavy cream
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
2 teaspoons corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons dark rum
