a separate large microwave safe bowl add butter and heat for 1 ½ minutes or until butter is completely melted.
next, add sugar and half & half; stir until combined. place in microwave and heat for 3 minutes. then vigorously stir to combine, then cook another 2 minutes. stir well while scraping down sides of bowl. return to microwave and cook for another 3 minutes. stir once more and then heat another 2 ½ minutes.
*tip* you may want to set the large bowl on a plate in case it boils over while heating. this happens every time and the plate makes less of a mess for me to pick up.
immediately remove
