Great carrots! I am a sucker for new carrot recipes and of course for anything involving Amaretto. I am glad I tried this. These carrots are incredibly easy to make and impressive. I had to add a small bit of cornstarch to the Amaretto-butter mixture as the carrots were cooking to thicken up the sauce a bit. These taste even better the next day!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I'm a grandmother who loves having the grandkids around. My son is currently living with me (on a short term basis) so I get to see and spend time with his kids more than I ever had, and that's a great thing.
I love trying new recipes and since I have found RecipeZaar, the new dishes have been streaming. Sometimes I think the kids would prefer a little break, but until they speak up, it's something new for them about everytime they visit with us.
I don't consider myself a 'cook,' I can only follow recipes. To me a cook is someone who can come up with their own recipes and have success at it (like my daughter).
