How to Make Java Walnut Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the butter and brown sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
  2. Stir in the strong brewed coffee, vanilla extract, and salt. Bring to a simmer.
  3. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped walnuts. Let cool slightly before serving.
  5. Drizzle generously over your favorite ice cream or pound cake and enjoy!
