- Number of Servings: 12
Ingredients
1 cup Guinness or other stout beer½ cup powdered Swerve Sweetener or powdered erythritol½ cup xylitol½ cup whipping cream2 tbsp butter½ tsp vanilla extract¼ tsp plus 1/8 tsp xanthan gum
For the caramel sauce, place stout in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and continue to cook for 7 minutes, to reduce.
Stir in powdered erythritol and xylitol, and continue to boil until mixture thickens and becomes slightly syrupy, about 7 minutes. Mixture will smoke.
Remove from heat and add whipping cream and butter. Mixture will bubble vigorously.
Stir in vanilla extract, then sprinkle with xanthan gum and whisk quickly to combine.
Let cool half an hour, then pour over cake. Alternatively, drizzle over pieces of cake before serving.
*Caramel sauce will begin to crystallize a bit when exposed to the air. Store in an airtight container and give it a few seconds in the microwave to warm just before serving.
