Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter sliced
  • 2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons brandy

Instructions

  • Melt butter in a 3-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add the brown sugar and heavy whipping cream and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil. Once it boils, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Let the mixture cool about 5 minutes, then add the brandy.
  • Pour into jar or storage container and let cool. Store covered in refrigerator.
  • The caramel should stay pourable but if it thickens, just heat it a little in the microwave to thin.
  • This caramel sauce makes a wonderful topping for Walkers Mince Pies – drizzle as much or as little as you wish over the pies before serving.
