Prep Time 5 minutes Cook Time 5 minutes Total Time 10 minutes Yield 10 servings

INGREDIENTS

⅓ Cup unsalted butter sliced
2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
⅓ Cup heavy whipping cream
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons brandy

INSTRUCTIONS

Melt butter in a 3-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add the brown sugar and heavy whipping cream and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil. Once it boils, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Let the mixture cool about 5 minutes, then add the brandy.
Pour into jar or storage container and let cool. Store covered in refrigerator.
The caramel should stay pourable but if it thickens, just heat it a little in the microwave to thin.
This caramel sauce makes a wonderful topping for Walkers Mince Pies – drizzle as much or as little as you wish over the pies before serving.
