Very tasty sauce. I omitted the brandy and added a tbsp of Greek yogurt. This went well with the apple coffee cake

This is a great recipe!! When I made it I omitted the vanilla and rum but stirred in about a teaspoon of sea salt and it tasted just like those really fancy salted caramels. :o) I used the sauce to top sticky buns but I can think of many many things to put it on, including a spoon! ;o)

Delish! I did take another cook's tip to use cream and skipped the brandy. Nummy! I'll use this over and over again.

I made with almond milk, no brandy, no vanilla and used as an apple dip. It was delicious! I can just imagine how well it would work with baked goods! I am so glad I found a cream cheese free brown sugar recipe I can use as a fruit dip. Yum.

This was the sauce my aunt in Tennessee served over pound cake when I was a child (no brandy though!) thanks for posting! And DEFINITELY use cream instead of milk!

This was lovely over the German Apple Cake recipe on this site! I found it too thick for my liking and would recommend therefore reducing the flour for the future. Also, this makes too much - I would make half the recipe for a cake, and reduce the sugar just a touch because it was quite sweet.

We enjoyed this sauce and put a little bit of it over warm apple crisp and added some to homemade bread pudding! My kids especially loved it! Thanks! =)

I made this to go with bread pudding. It was great. I did not put the brandy in it. My whole family loved it. Will use it again.

Used this to top off a pear cake I made from this site. It added another dimension to the flavors, but I had to give it 4 star because it was amazing when it was freshly made but the next day it was disappointing. I also found the brandy flavor to be a bit strong, next time I'll play around with the measurements.

This is a great easy sauce recipe! I've been making one for 15 years and it never seemed to turn out right. Just tried this one and it was great. I just didn't have brandy so I used vanilla rum instead.
