Not sure about this. Heavy cream and whiskey? Seems too fancy for my simple dinners.
Sooo good! 😍
I tried this recipe and honestly, it was kinda too sweet for my taste. I don’t know if I would make it again.
Very easy to make, but I used half the sugar by mistake and it still turned out great! Will make again.
Wow, this sauce is so good! The whiskey really gives it a kick. I used it on my steak and it was amazing.
Really? I thought it would taste too strong with the whiskey. How much whiskey did you add? I might try it if it’s not overpowering.
I agree! The whiskey really enhances the flavor. I’ve also tried it on grilled chicken, and it was delicious! 👍
I don’t think whiskey belongs in sauces. Tried this but it’s just too strong for my taste.
Whiskey for a sauce? Is that even safe for kids? I don’t get why you’d cook with alcohol like this. Just stick to ketchup, it’s better.
Yum!! What a rich, delightful sauce! Perfect for ice cream too. Who knew?!
I never thought about using it on ice cream! That sounds amazing! Can’t wait to try it!
Whiskey on ice cream? Really? That seems kinda weird to me. I’m not sure about that.
This sauce is a game changer! I put it on everything now. Five stars!
What did I just make?? It was delicious but the alcohol flavor was soooo strong. Kinda scared me.
