A traditional butterscotch sauce recipe requires only three main ingredients: brown sugar, butter, and heavy cream. That’s it! We also add in a little vanilla and salt to boost the flavor. Speaking of salt, this recipe calls for a lot of it—up to a one teaspoon. While it may seem excessive, trust us. The salt sets off the brown sugar and butter flavors, much the same way it does in salted caramel. The recipe specifies kosher salt, but it's perfectly fine to substitute regular salt but use a little less. Do not leave out the butterscotch essence! It’s the key ingredient to making it taste exactly as it did in school. Flattening your pastry into a disc before refrigerating will chill it faster. (Due to the larger surface area.)

I hope you guys will give this butterscotch kheer recipe a try. It’s easy to make although the 3 parts to it might sound like a lot of work but it’s all easy to put together.

Water, sugar and corn syrup are heated until the sugar dissolves. Then the mix is left to boil until the syrup turns golden brown. Butter, cream and vanilla syrup are added and the ooey-gooey sauce is heated again. “Caramel can be a sauce, a candy or a topping,” says Helen Fletcher, professional baker and author of European Tarts. “It all depends upon the temperature of the caramel you are making. The higher the temperature, the more set the caramel [will be].” Try out caramel of all kinds with our 10 best homemade caramel recipes What Is Butterscotch?

What's the difference between butterscotch and caramel? Butterscotch and caramel are both cooked sugar. But the main difference between the two is the sugar used to make them. Caramel is often made with regular white granulated sugar, while butterscotch is made with brown sugar. Caramel sauce doesn't always have butter, while butterscotch always calls for butter.I’ve caramelized sugar a million times and a thousand different ways—white sugar, brown sugar, butter, no butter, bourbon, whiskey, cream, vanilla. This recipe is hands-down the winner when it comes to a fast (10 minutes!) and easy sauce for ice cream sundaes. This kheer is inspired by my favorite Butterscotch Ice cream. It has the same flavors but in the form of a kheer. I went a little bit over the top with the sauce and decorating with these cute cupcake pipettes and they turned out so cute! Three Parts To The Recipe Pour the (still warm) butterscotch sauce into the tart case. Just pour all in the middle, it will spread out to the edges by itself!! If you want you can skip the sauce and serve the kheer with praline only. But do not skip the crunchy praline since that’s the part that I associate most with butterscotch flavor. Ingredients Either using a pastry blender or rubbing between your forefingers and thumbs, mix the flour, salt and butter in a large bowl until fine crumbs form.

Place 1 1/2 tsp of the butterscotch filling in each tart case and spread out a little by tilting the cases. After that, all you have to do wait until it's cool enough to drizzle over ice cream, or whatever else you can dream up! To make the butterscotch sauce, in a pan add together butter, brown sugar, heavy cream and salt on medium heat

To make the tart cases: cut out 12 x 8cm rounds from the tortilla wraps using a plain round 8 cm cutter. If you don't have a cutter, you can use a round 8cm glass and cut around it using a small sharp knife.

Next once the dough has set you can roll it out and put it into a baking tray (Grease the tray lightly). If you do make your own, make it before you make the sauce, as the sauce needs to be poured in whilst it is warm! As always, take extra care when cooking for people with allergies and be sure to use different utensils, cookware and preparation areas. Do you need any special ingredients to make Butterscotch Tarts?For the praline: the crunchy praline is my favorite part and made with sugar and cashews. You can use a mix of almonds and cashews as well. Simply melt the butter with 30ml milk on low heat (I use whole milk but any will work) pour in soft light brown sugar, and stir , watch as it marbles together into a caramel colour. But she always made the basic rice kheer. For the festive season this year, I thought of giving mom’s usual kheer a makeover and make this Butterscotch Kheer. In the early days of making this, I made the mistake of not stiring the flour in with the milk, which made a lumpy Butterscotch sauce.... please if this happens to you do not give up!!

To keep your sauce from separating, be sure not to stir too much while the brown sugar is melting. Use moderate heat to ensure it doesn't burn.
