Rich caramel sauce

2 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup Brown sugar
1½ teaspoon Cornstarch
1 cup Light cream
¼ cup Butter
1 teaspoon Vanilla

Directions

Combine the brown sugar and cornstarch in the top of a double boiler.

Gradually add the cream and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Place over simmering water.

Add the butter and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and thickens slightly. Cook for a few minutes longer, stirring often, about 10 minutes in all. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and brandy. Serve hot over steamed pudding. Yields about 2 cups sauce.
