Cranberry Maple Sauce

This sauce is made from cranberries, maple syrup, sugar, butter and bourbon

Ingredients:

• 1/3 c Pure maple syrup
• 2 tb Sugar
• 1 1/2 c Cranberries - if frozen, do not thaw
• 3 tb Unsalted butter
• 1 1/2 tb Bourbon
  

Directions:

1. Bring the maple syrup and sugar to a boil in a small non-aluminum pan, then cook for 3 minutes.
2. Add the cranberries and cook until their skins burst and they begin to pop, 6-to-8 minutes, or slightly longer if they are frozen.
3. Cut the butter into 3 pieces. Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the butter, 1 piece at a time, waiting until each is incorporated before adding another.
4. Add the bourbon.
5. Sauce can be served immediately or refrigerated for up to a week.
6. Reheat gently and thin with 2 to 3 tablespoons water before serving.
