How to Make Caramel Whiskey Sauce
- Melt 1/4 cup (57g) of unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Add 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar, 1/4 cup (60ml) whiskey, 2 tablespoons water, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of ground nutmeg. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture begins to bubble, about 5 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk 2 large eggs lightly. Gradually whisk in 2 tablespoons of the hot whiskey mixture to temper the eggs, preventing them from scrambling.
- Pour the tempered egg mixture into the saucepan with the remaining whiskey mixture. Whisk constantly.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring continuously. Boil for exactly 1 minute, then immediately remove from heat.
- Let the sauce cool slightly before serving. The sauce will thicken as it cools.
