  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cider vinegar
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon rum extract

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the brown sugar and water, then bring to a gentle boil until the mixture reaches 240 F on a candy thermometer.
  2. Stir in the butter, salt, cider vinegar, and 1/4 cup of heavy cream, then set aside to cool to room temperature.
