Coffee Butterscotch Sauce image

Your ice cream will thank you for making this sexy and sophisticated coffee butterscotch sauce. What are you waiting for?

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 oz unsalted butter
8 oz granulated sugar (See Notes below)*
1.5 oz molasses, (I recommend Grandma's. Do not use blackstrap. See Notes below)*
1 teaspoon kosher salt, (I will let you use only 3/4 teaspoon if you must, but no less)
6 oz heavy cream
1 teaspoon good quality vanilla
coffee extract, to taste (1-3 teaspoons) (leave out if you want straight up butterscotch ice cream sauce)

Steps:

  • Melt the butter over medium heat.
  • Stir in the sugar, molasses and kosher salt. The mixture will look like wet brown sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes.
  • Add the heavy cream and bring the mixture to a boil.
  • Cook, stirring frequently, until mixture reaches 230F, about five minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla and optional coffee extracts. Taste and adjust seasonings as necessary.
  • Serve warm over ice cream. Or whatever.
  • Enjoy!
