How to Make Brandy Butterscotch Sauce

  1. Melt 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter and 1 cup (200g) packed light brown sugar in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a gentle boil, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
  2. In a separate saucepan, heat 1 cup (240ml) evaporated milk until just below boiling point. Gradually whisk the hot milk into the cooled butter-sugar mixture. Cook over low heat for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in 2 tablespoons (30ml) brandy. Increase heat to medium-high and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until the sauce slightly thickens.
  3. Remove from heat and let cool completely before transferring to a sterilized jar or bottle. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. This sauce will keep for 3-4 months in the refrigerator.
  4. (Optional) Garnish with a sprinkle of sea salt for an extra touch of sophistication
