Print Recipe
- 1/2 cup Butter (1 stick)
- 3/4 cup Dark Brown Sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup Heavy Cream
- 1 tsp Dark Rum, or vanilla (in a pinch)
- 1/4 tsp Flaky salt (I used Himalyan)
- 1/4 tsp Cinnamon
Combine butter, brown sugar and cream in a heavy pot on the stove top, heating on medium to medium high heat. Stir mixture until melted and smooth.
Bring to a boil, then turn down heat to a simmer, and allow to cook for about 3 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in rum, salt and pinch of cinnamon. Can be held at room temperature for several hours, or refrigerate in a covered container if keeping longer.
Reheat in container in saucepan with water simmering over low heat, or in a microwave in 30 minute increments, stirring after each. Serve with an additional sprinkle of salt.
