Brandied Peach Sauce

Submitted by Poppy

"This peach sauce is a favorite over ice cream, cake, pancakes, waffles. If you do not want to use the brandy, peach or apricot nectar is a good substitute. Plain brandy can also be substituted if desired."

Made this just as a change from the strawberry sauces I usually make during the summer ~ Made a double batch, & we find it GREAT OVER ICE CREAM & POUND CAKE! Thanks for a great recipe

Excellent recipe!! I made this to go over pancakes (#66241) with Chambord spiked whipped cream!! Awesome! My family of four devoured it. I also added sliced almonds, almond extract, and a few tabs of butter to the peaches. I will definetly make again.
