Easy Bourbon Sauce (ancient recipe)

Easy Bourbon Sauce

   This recipe, from Prudence Hilburn's "A Treasury of Southern Baking," is delicious served over bread pudding or fruit.

 1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature 1 cup sugar 1/4 cup water 1 large egg yolk 

 2 tablespoons bourbon Combine the butter, sugar, water and egg yolk in a small saucepan. 

 Mix well. 

Cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue cooking about 3 minutes, or until the mixture starts to thicken. 

Remove from heat and stir in bourbon. 

Serve warm. Makes a generous 1/2 cup. 

 I found this on an old 3½" floppy. This file is technically (probably) stolen but fortunately, no one is ever going to find and read this blog...
