Time 50m

Yield 1/2 pound

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
2 tablespoons corn syrup
1/2 cup water
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter
3 drops vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In a large pot, combine brown sugar, corn syrup, water and salt.
  • Cook over medium-low heat, stirring, until sugar is dissolved.
  • Do not let this come to a boil until sugar has completely dissolved.
  • Turn the heat up a bit and continue cooking to the hard ball stage (250F).
  • Add butter and stir to keep from scorching.
  • Cook until mixture will separate into hard but not brittle strands (270F) when tested in cold water.
  • Stir in the vanilla.
  • Pour candy in a thin sheet onto a greased slab.
  • (I don't have a slab. I turn a large metal baking pan upside down and grease the bottom- works great!).
  • Mark into squares while still warm, creasing it deeply.
  • Break into pieces as soon as it is cool.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality butterscotch schnapps for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have butterscotch schnapps, you can substitute another type of caramel liqueur, such as Frangelico or Bailey's Irish Cream.
  • Garnish your drink with a cherry, a twist of lemon, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for an extra touch of flavor.
  • If you want to make a non-alcoholic version of this drink, simply omit the butterscotch schnapps and add an extra splash of cream.
  • For a frozen version of this drink, blend all of the ingredients with ice until smooth.
