Rich, buttery and sweet, this traditional French Canadian treat is so good you’ll want to make a second batch.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp butter

Preparation

  1. Stir first three ingredients together in an 8-cup microwavable bowl.
  2. Heat in the microwave for 11 minutes, stirring every 3 minutes.
  3. Using an electric mixer, beat in vanilla extract and butter on medium-high, for 2–4 minutes, until the mixture is thickened. (You’ll know it’s ready when the surface changes from glossy to matte.)
  4. Pour mixture into a well-buttered 8” square dish. Let cool and cut into small squares. Serve.
