How to Make Whiskey Sauce
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
- Stir in 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup whiskey (or 1/8 cup whiskey and 1/8 cup water for a milder sauce), 1 tablespoon water (if not using the milder version), 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Stir until completely dissolved and well combined.
- Remove from heat and whisk in 1 large egg vigorously until the mixture is light and frothy.
- Return the saucepan to medium heat. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring constantly.
- Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 1 minute. It should coat the back of a spoon.
- Remove from heat immediately and serve warm over your favorite dessert.
