Caramel Bourbon Vanilla Sauce Recipes

CARAMEL BOURBON VANILLA SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Combine sugar and water in large heavy sauce pan (I used my dutch oven) over medium heat. Cook until the mixture turns dark amber in color; avoid stirring, but instead swirl the pan occasionally while cooking. Takes about 20 minutes.
• 2. While the sugar is browning, get your other ingredients measured and ready. Once the sugar mixture is darkened, reduce the heat to low. SLOWLY add the cream, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon (it will bubble furiously; just keep drizzling in the cream and stirring). Remove from heat and add vanilla, lemon juice, butter and bourbon. Stir well to combine.
• 3. Place in storage container, cover and refrigerate. Keep in refrigerator for up to 1 week. Bring sauce to room temperature or warm over low heat before using.
