Butter Rum Toffee Sauce

Ingredients

1 oz. butter

4 oz. heavy cream

3 oz. dark brown sugar

1/2 oz. dark rum

Method

1. Combine butter, sugar, and cream; bring to a boil.

2. Remove from heat and add rum. Stir until all is incorporated. Serve hot.

Custard Sauce

Ingredients

8 egg yolks

3 oz. castor sugar

1 vanilla bean

½ pint milk

½ pint heavy cream

Method

1. Beat the egg yolks and sugar together in a bowl until well blended.

2. Scrape the insides of the vanilla pod, if using, into the milk and cream, add the pod too, and bring to the boil.

3. Sit the bowl over a pan of hot water and whisk the cream into the egg yolks and sugar. As the egg yolks cook, the custard will thicken.

4. Keep stirring until it starts to coat the back of a spoon, then remove the bowl from the heat and the pod from the custard.

Serve warm or cold. Stir the sauce occasionally until cool, to prevent a skin forming, or cover with greaseproof paper while it cools.
