Sweets, and especially sweets, are loved absolutely and at any age. From a wide variety of all kinds of sweets, there are fans of "butterscotch". Unfortunately, it is impossible to find out the real composition of the Soviet-era in-store dessert. Therefore, many housewives empirically found a recipe for sweets made on the basis of sour cream, of course, homemade. But if you do not have sour cream, and even more so homemade, then you can just as well use milk or cream.
The advantage of homemade sweets is that they are made from natural products. Therefore, you can be sure that your child will eat an exceptionally high-quality dessert. It turns out toffee, toffee. And in order to diversify this dish, you can add all kinds of additives to the composition. For example, chocolate, nuts, peanuts, coconut and more.

The taste of butterscotch turns out to be not rich and not sugary sweet, but unobtrusive, with a light sour cream flavor.

Cooking chocolate toffee from sour cream:
1. Pour the sour cream into a clean and dry skillet or saucepan with a thick bottom to prevent the food from burning.
2. Then add sugar. If you use honey, add it at the end of cooking.
3. Place the skillet on the stove and heat. Sour cream will immediately melt and acquire a liquid consistency.
4. Reduce heat to medium and simmer food, stirring continuously. Sour cream will boil and a foam with bubbles will form on the surface.
5. After 10-15 minutes, the mass will begin to acquire a light caramel shade.
6. At this point, add the cocoa powder. You can also use chocolate icing or melted chocolate. But these products should be used at the very end of cooking, because when boiled, the chocolate becomes bitter.
7. Stir the ingredients and continue to cook until thickened. But keep in mind that after hardening, it will become even thicker. The degree of boiling of food affects the consistency of the candy. If you want a softer treat, cook the food for less time, about 20 minutes. If you prefer hard candies like hard candies, it will take 35-40 minutes. The average cooking time is half an hour, then the sweets will turn out to be moderately dense and not very soft.
8. Prepare the molds. These can be silicone molds for small muffins, muffins, candies, etc. Pour the mass over them and send the treat to the refrigerator for 2-3 hours to harden.
9. When the mixture becomes dense, remove it from the molds and serve in a tea party.
