Ingredients

• 2 cups Heavy cream

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin powder over cold water and let it bloom for 5 minutes.

In a medium saucepan, combine brown sugar, unsalted butter, and golden syrup. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to bubble and becomes smooth.

While the butterscotch mixture is still warm, stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.

Step 6

Let the mixture cool to room temperature for about 10 minutes before whisking in the Amarula cream liqueur.

Step 7

Divide the mixture evenly among 6 serving glasses or dessert cups.

Step 8

Refrigerate the servings for at least 4 hours or until fully set.

Step 9

Before serving, optionally top each dessert with whipped cream and a sprinkle of butterscotch chips for garnish.
