Fall is my favorite season, and there’s something magical about sipping on a homemade butterscotch latte on a crisp autumn morning. With my expertise in flavor pairing and ingredient ratios, I can guide you through the process of making your own butterscotch coffee creamer that rivals any cafe creation.

Ingredients

• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For a dairy-free option, you can substitute the heavy cream with coconut cream or almond milk. If you prefer a lower-sugar version, you can use a sugar substitute like erythritol or stevia.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.

2. Add the brown sugar and cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar has dissolved.

3. Slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring to combine.

4. Allow the mixture to simmer for 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat.

5. Stir in the vanilla extract and salt.

6. Let the butterscotch coffee creamer cool before transferring it to a jar or bottle for storage.
