6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter

1/3 cup sugar

2 pounds Golden Delicious apples, peeled, cored, cut into 1/2-inch cubes

2/3 cup whipping cream

Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat; sprinkle sugar over.

Stir until sugar begins to melt, about 1 minute.

Add apples. Sauté until apples are brown and tender and juices form, about 10 minutes.

Add cream and simmer until sauce thickens slightly, about 2 minutes.

Serve immediately or let stand at room temperature. Will keep for 3 hours. Rewarm apples over medium heat.
