Mandarin Orange Sauce for Crepes

Submitted by BETHANY T.

"This sauce goes beautifully with crepes. Not too sweet, and super quick and easy to make. I used the crepe recipe posted by MizzNezz (recipe #18410). I coat the crepes with the sauce and fold into quarters."

Love this sauce... I add a little honey in with the oranges, and an extra bit of sugar. It is an excellent sauce, everyone I know just loves it. Thanks for the recipe!

Very easy and quick to make. Didn't have rum, but used everything else (except had 11 oz can of oranges). Nice sauce for pancakes. I have a cold, so I'll have to try it again to get more of the flavor :)
