Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 0.5 cup Brown sugar
  • 0.5 cup Heavy cream
  • 3 tablespoons Kahlua (coffee liqueur)
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 0.125 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.

Step 2

Once the butter is melted, add the brown sugar and whisk until fully dissolved and combined. This should take about 1-2 minutes.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to low and slowly add the heavy cream while whisking continuously to prevent the mixture from separating.

Step 4

Increase the heat back to medium and cook the mixture for 2-3 minutes, stirring regularly, until it begins to thicken slightly.

Step 5

Stir in the Kahlua, vanilla extract, and salt, and cook for an additional 2 minutes, ensuring the sauce is well combined and smooth.

Step 6

Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the sauce to cool slightly. It will continue to thicken as it cools.

Step 7

Serve warm or at room temperature drizzled over your favorite dessert. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
