- Combine the brown sugar, cornstarch, and salt in the medium saucepan. With the wooden spoon gradually stir in the milk.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir the mixture until it is thick and bubbling - about 10 - 15 minutes. Stir and cook for 2 more minutes, and then take the saucepan off the heat.
- Dip a measuring cup into the hot mixture and take out about 1 cup. Very slowly stir the cup of hot mixture into the egg yolks. Then stir the hot egg-yolk mixture into the large saucepan.
- Stirring constantly, cook over medium heat for 2 more minutes.
- Take the saucepan off the heat and add the butter and vanilla. Stir with the wooden spoon until the butter melts.

A Wondeful historical recipe thanks Diana! I mase this as posted and before it set, I poured it into individual bowls for ease and looks! We found it a bit sweet for our tastes and the butterscotch was not as pronounced as we like; BUT, it made a delightful ending to Sunday lunch today, I served it with whipped cream and a dusting of cocoa! Made for the Aus/NZ recipe swap, thanks for posting! FT:-)
