Caramel Sauce with Grand Marnier, Flan Style Recipe - (3.8/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup water OR
1/4 cup water and
3 tablespoons water (or Grand marnier or bourbon)

Steps:

  • Equipment needed: Heavy skillet or a thick bottomed pan Whisk NOTE: Be sure to have all of your ingredients ready before First, before you begin, make sure you have everything ready to go - the water and the alcohol (if using) next to the pan, ready to put in. Making caramel is a fast process that cannot wait for hunting around for ingredients. If you don't work fast, the sugar will burn. Safety first - make sure there are no children under foot and you may want to wear oven mitts; the caramelized sugar will be much hotter than boiling water. In a heavy skillet, and place over medium-high heat, spread the sugar evenly. As the sugar begins to melt, stir vigorously with a whisk or wooden spoon. As soon as the sugar comes to a boil, stop stirring. You can swirl the pan a bit if you want, from this point on. Note that this recipe works best if you are using a thick-bottomed pan. The sugar should turn to a dark amber--about 2-3 minutes. Very carefully, stir in 1/2 cup warm water (I used 1/4 cup water and 3 Tbsp. of Grand Marnier) and bourbon. It will bubble, but don't panic! Stir until combined, and remove from heat to cool to room temperature. The sauce will be a very thin consistency. This is perfect for serving with a panna cota. If you refrigerate this sauce, it will thicken and is perfect for flavoring a vanilla butter cream or looks very pretty drizzled over a piece of cheesecake, ice cream or frosted cupcakes.
