Bourbon Whiskey Sauce for Bread Pudding

Instructions

1. 1

   Melt the butter and add the sugar, the orange juice, and 1/4 cup water. Cook over medium-low heat until all the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat.

2. 2

   Beat the egg well in a bowl. Add the butter-sugar mixture, about a tablespoon at a time, while whisking constantly. (You can pick up the pace after half of the butter-sugar is added.)

3. 3

   Add the Bourbon and whisk to make a smooth sauce.
