Toffee Sauce

By Texaschef11

Ingredients

• 5 Tbs. unsalted butter
• 3/4 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
• 2 Tbs. water
• 1/8 tsp. salt
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 2 tsp. dark rum

Preparation

Step 1

In a saucier or small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the brown sugar, water and salt and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved and the liquid thickens slightly, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the cream and rum.

Return the pan to medium-low heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is the consistency of thick syrup, 8 to 10 minutes.
