Bourbon Caramel Sauce
Rich creamy caramel sauce, spiked with bourbon
- 2 cups white sugar
- ½ cup water
- 1 Tbsp corn syrup
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup bourbon
In heavy bottom sauce pan, add water and sugar and cook over med high heat.
Do not stir expect to combine ingredients.
Cook approx 5-6 minutes or until syrup starts to turn amber in color.
Once its a deep amber, remove from the heat and stir in heavy cream, cautiously. Caramel will bubble up. Add bourbon. Stir until combined. (you can use less bourbon if you want. This is a boozy caramel!)Return to heat and bring back to a boil for approx one minute. Mixture will be bubbly, but will pop as it cools and moisture escapes. Chill, or allow to cool down to room tempurate before using. Sauce will thicken upon cooling. Can be heated slightly before use.
