BUTTERSCOTCH SAUCE - glass jars
http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/how_to_make_butterscotch/
brown sugar, butter, cream - could show in jar and over ice cream

Makes about 16 oz  - or (4) 4oz jars

1 stick butter
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
pinch of salt

1. In a saucepan on low heat, melt the butter, and then add the brown sugar. Stir together with a wooden spoon.
2. Stir slowly, allowing the sugar to absorb the butter and turn from a gritty sand texture, then into a more liquid, bubbly lava texture.
3. Once the butter sugar mixture is molten, bubbling liquid, add the cream all at once. Whisk together with a whisk, and continue whisking and simmering until the desired texture is reached. 
3. Add the vanilla and a pinch of salt and stir to combine.
4. Remember that the butterscotch will continue to thicken as it cools. Test for a just-thickened liquid, and then pour into glass jars. Wait until the jars have cooled completely, then fit with a tight lid, and keep refrigerated for up to two weeks.
