How to Make Grand Marnier Sauce
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 large egg yolks, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour until pale and lemon-colored.
- In a separate medium saucepan, gently heat 1 cup whole milk and 1/2 cup heavy cream over medium heat until small bubbles begin to form around the edges. Do not boil.
- Gradually whisk the hot cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture, ensuring a smooth consistency.
- Pour the mixture back into the saucepan. Cook over very low heat, stirring constantly with a whisk or spatula, until the custard thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 5-7 minutes). Do not boil.
- Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons Grand Marnier liqueur. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
- Strain the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve for a smoother texture (optional).
- Serve warm or cold, alongside your favorite soufflé or other desserts.
