Warm Fireside Butterscotch Milk

Servings: About 7 cups

Snuggle up with your sweeties with mugs of this caramelly, buttery deliciousness. 

Ingredients

1 stick salted butter
6 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 tablespoon sorghum molasses 
2–3 ice cubes
1 cup heavy cream
6 cups milk (we used unsweetened almond milk)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Whipped cream or marshmallows
Cinnamon

Directions

  1. Heat butter with sugar in a heavy, medium- sized saucepan over medium heat, stirring continually until butter is melted. Add molasses and continue stirring until syrup is browned and smells toasty, 4–5 minutes. 

  2. Remove from heat and stir in a few ice cubes. Whisk in cream, milk and salt. Put back on burner over medium-low heat and slowly warm. Heating too fast will cause the milk to separate.

  3. Top with whipped cream or marshmallows and a dusting of cinnamon.
