Ingredients

• 115 grams Unsalted butter
• 200 grams Light brown sugar
• 150 ml Heavy cream
• 60 ml Rum (dark or spiced)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the unsalted butter and light brown sugar over medium heat. Stir continuously until the butter has completely melted and the sugar has dissolved, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 2

Gradually pour in the heavy cream while stirring. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture comes to a boil.

Step 3

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and allow the sauce to simmer for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the rum, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Let the sauce cool for 10 minutes before serving. The sauce will thicken further as it cools.

Step 6

Serve warm over desserts such as ice cream, cakes, or pancakes, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat gently before serving if needed.
