Hot Butterscotch Recipes

HOT BUTTERSCOTCH

Steps:

• Put butter in a medium saucepan and sprinkle with sugars. Cook over medium heat until butter is melted, whisking to combine; then cook, stirring constantly with a heatproof flexible spatula, until butterscotch begins to smoke, 5 to 10 minutes. Reduce heat to ­medium low and continue cooking and stirring until butterscotch is reddish brown and has the consistency of peanut butter, about 10 minutes.
• Remove from heat and very carefully whisk in 2 tbsp. water to stop the cooking. Whisk in cream, milk, and salt. ­Gently reheat (the acid in the sugars will cause it to break if overheated). Drink right away, or pour into a warm Thermos for sipping later.Make ahead: Up to 2 days, chilled. Reheat as instructed above.
