Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 12- ounce stout beer (such as Guinness)
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instruction

  • Pour the stout into a medium saucepan and heat to boiling. Reduce heat to a rapid simmer and cook until the stout is reduced by half.
  • Stir in the brown sugar and vanilla. Heat to boiling, reduce heat to a rapid simmer and let the mixture cook 8-10 minutes without stirring until sauce turns a deep amber and bubbles start to grow and expand. Mixture will be hot like lava, so be careful.
  • Remove from heat and add the butter, cream and salt and stir carefully until fully combined. Transfer to a resealable glass storage jar and let the mixture cool to room temperature. Keep in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
