Combine 3 T. butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar. Cook over low flame until melted. Add about 1 cup chopped nuts or coconut or 1/2 each, and a little coffee cream about 1/4 cup, to make consistency to spread. I use a fork to spread it on baked cake. Put under the broiler until bubbles form, be sure to watch carefully.
notes
I usually make more than (topping) it calls for as it will make you fatter. Betty wrote this.
