I've never even tasted Scotch (and have no desire to) ~ my alcoholic drinks have to be fruity or taste like a milkshake :) ** So, I'm celebrating National Scotch Day with BUTTERSCOTCH instead! ** As always, recipes for any photos are on my Pinterest boards, and also listed here under Recipes (sub-categories) OATMEAL TOFFEE BUTTERSCOTCH COOKIES ** These are SOFT and CHEWY with BUTTERSCOTCH CHIPS * butter * brown sugar * TOFFEE BITS and hint of cinnamon * GLAZED |
1/2 tsp butter.........................................................32 mini marshmallows
1 cup milk..............................................................1 TB brown sugar (packed)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract...........................................Whipped cream and butterscotch syrup (OPTIONAL)
Put milk, brown sugar, and extract in heavy medium-size saucepan, and stir to mix. Put saucepan over medium-high heat, and, whisking constantly, heat until mixture begins to reach a boil. Reduce the heat to medium or medium-low, and add 20 marshmallows. Continue to heat, whisking, until marshmallows begin to melt. Remove saucepan from heat, and whisk until it becomes frothy. Put 6 remaining marshmallows in bottom of each of 2 mugs. Pour butterscotch mixture over marshmallows, and serve immediately. Serves 2 ** Can also top with whipped cream, and drizzle with butterscotch syrup if desired
