Homemade Whisky Cream Sauce

My boyfriends mother, Susan, got this one stuck in my head.  And I had to try it.  It is insane!!!

You need...
1 stick of butter
1 cup of heavy cream
1 1/3 cup of white sugar
1/4 cup of whisky
1 tsp of vanilla
And a very strong arm to whisk...its worth the effort.

Combined melted butter, heavy cream and sugar into a pan on very low heat.  Start whisking.  (this prevents burning) 
Once mixture thickens (approx 20-30 minutes) add vanilla and whisky
Keep whisking away for about 10-15 minutes
Let rest and thicken for about 10-15 minutes

Pour over bread pudding or pound cake.

Pictures to follow!

Meredith with our Pineapple Banana Cairns with Creme

Pineapple Banana Cairns with Vanilla Cream on top

Had to try this one out this morning  I put a slice of Banana and pineapple . Sprinkle a little cinnamon topped with a vanilla Cre'me sauce. But the best part I get to use my torch to crisp the top. I think I scare the girls working for me when I get that thing out. But guest  seem to have loved it.   Sonya Can't wait for you to see this one. You would be very proud of me.
