Butterscotch Sauce

Ingredients 
  • 8oz (225g) Caster sugar
  • 3fl oz (100ml) Water
  • ½ pt (300ml) Single cream
  • 4oz (115g) Unsalted butter, diced
Method
  1. Place the sugar and water in a heavy pan and bring to the boil. Lower the heat and use a thermometer to take the caramel to 180°C (350°F), when it will be a deep, golden brown.
  2. Remove the pan from the heat and gradually add the cream, a spoonful at a time, as the mixture will foam up. When all the cream has been incorporated, gradually stir in the butter to give a smooth, creamy sauce.
  3. Use immediately or cool and refrigerate for up to a week. Reheat gently, returning to the boil only after the butterscotch is hot.
