Butterscotch sauce is a very simple dessert sauce that can be made in a skillet or frying pan over any source of heat.
When camping, I like to use this over cakes or baked desserts along with fruits.
Be careful to manage the heat well as the sugar can burn. If this happens there is no recovery, you will need to start again.
