Amaretto Sauce

Submitted by Luckeydevil

"This sauce is so YUMMY!! It was originally a topping for bread pudding(check out my recipe for that too!) but this is too delicious to hide in another recipe. I use it to top so many thing but my favorite is for ice cream! I also usually double the recipe."

This seemed too simple but it tastes amazing! It makes me want to try turning all kinds of buttercream Recipies into sauces.

I made the recipe as instructed only leaving the sauce on and bringing it to a boil to burn off that alcohol. OMGoodness, deliciousness on my breadpudding!!

This turned out great! I wanted to mimic an amaretto sauce I had at a B&B which had a creamy texture. This recipe seems more glaze-like than sauce-like but still worked wonderfully for my purposes. Since I didn't have amaretto, I substituted the same amount of water with about 2 tsp almond extract instead. I used the sauce to drizzle over mixed berries (raspberries, blackberries and hulled strawberries ) and got rave reviews even from non-fruity folks.
