I made this to serve over bread pudding and it was FABULOUS! Of course there was a lot left over and the older it got the more it tasted like butterscotch. Used the rest over ice cream. I will never use store bought butterscotch sauce again!!!

The sauce tasted good, but this recipe makes it much more difficult than it needs to be. Great butterscotch doesn't need to take two hours-- which this one did. Also, the consistency was less smooth than it was supposed to be, and seemed more fatty than smooth.

The recipe directions/ techniques weren't the best-- it gave no time estimate for "soft ball" stage, and since most of the dairy was added in the beginning, it took a long time to thicken.

If you want an easy and quick recipe, check out "How to make butterscotch" on simply recipes dot com. It comes complete with illustrations and time estimates, is much quicker, has much better texture, and has fewer ingredients.

Good luck!

Nicole--were you looking for a butterscotch candy recipe? This is a sauce recipe --to use over -ice cream or deserts---I've never heard of a butterscotch sauce being chewy--the recipe title said butterscotch sauce. Look for Butterscotch candy recipes -you'll do better--on-the other hand--this was an excellent and easy to do recipe--great on a good vanilla ice cream--thanks

I was looking for a thick, chewy butterscotch recipe. This one has great flavor but is definitely not what I wanted. I tasted it before adding the cream and vanilla at the end, however, and I think if you stopped after that, or maybe cut the cream down to about a tablespoon, it would be perfect. Also, I think the vanilla was too much. 1 tsp. would have been fine, 2 was a little overboard.

If you like your butterscotch thinner and less buttery this is an excellent recipe, if you don't it is probably still an excellent recipe, just don't add all the cream at the end.
