This buttery bourbon sauce packs a sweet kick with hints of vanilla and brown sugar. It’s the perfect finishing touch for anything from meats and seafood to vegetables, bread pudding, and even ice cream.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon bourbon
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. 1

    Add butter and brown sugar to a small saucepan and place over a medium-low heat setting. Stir constantly until the mixture melts and combines.

  2. 2

    Add in the bourbon and let it boil for a minute to allow the alcohol to evaporate.

  3. 3

    Stir in the honey and vanilla until combined. (The consistency should be similar to that of maple syrup at this stage.)

  4. 4

    Remove pot from heat when the mixture reaches desired consistency and allow to cool slightly.
