- ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) salted butter
- ¼ cup (59.5 g) heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

- Once melted, continue cooking for 3-4 more minutes, stirring frequently to allow the mixture to thicken slightly.
- Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and salt.
- Let the butterscotch sauce cool for a few minutes in the saucepan. It will continue to thicken as it cools.
- Pour the butterscotch sauce into a heatproof container or jar, and allow it to cool to room temperature. Store it in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
- Serve over ice cream, pancakes, waffles, brownies, or as a dip for apple slices. Enjoy!
