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

Instructions

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