Things You’ll Need
-
1 cup heavy cream, chilled

Tip
This recipe makes 4 servings!
Step 1: Make the Whipped Cream
Add the heavy cream, powdered sugar and vanilla to a bowl and beat on high until soft peaks form. Drizzle in two tablespoons butterscotch, then beat until well combined. Set aside.
Tip
Why powdered sugar and not granulated? Because powdered sugar is a stabilizer, it keeps the cream whipped!
Step 2: Prepare the Mugs
Drizzle the insides of the serving mugs with butterscotch.
Step 3: Add Soda and Extract
Fill the mugs 2/3 full with cream soda, add a splash of butter extract (about 1/8 teaspoon), and stir gently to combine.
Step 4: Top with Whipped Cream
Fill the remainder of the mugs with whipped cream, and drizzle with butterscotch sauce.
Tip
Want to make this in advance? No problem! Prepare all the mugs and place in the refrigerator. Prepare the whipped cream, and add to an air-tight container in the fridge. Just fill the mugs and serve when you're ready!
