Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup pecans, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar and butter over medium heat.
Stir constantly until the butter is fully melted, and the mixture starts to bubble lightly (about 2-3 minutes).
Slowly whisk in the heavy whipping cream and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture is smooth and thickened (approximately 3-4 minutes).
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until they are fully melted and incorporated.
Mix in the vanilla extract, chopped pecans, and salt, stirring until combined.
Let the sauce cool slightly before serving. The sauce will thicken as it cools.
Serve warm over your favorite desserts, such as ice cream, pancakes, waffles, or use it as a dip for fruits.
