InstructionsCombine the sugar and water in a saucepan. Gently stir until the mixture comes to a boil. Periodically during cooking, be sure to wash the sides of the saucepan with a clean pastry brush dipped in water. Once the mixture boils, stop stirring. Add the corn syrup and continue cooking over moderate to high heat until the mixture becomes a medium caramel color. Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the butter piece by piece. Stir in the orange juice and liqueur. Allow to cool, then transfer to a clean container, cover, and refrigerate until needed. |

NotesTo vary the flavor, use a different juice in place of the orange juice, such as cherry, apple, or pineapple, or substitute another liqueur. For a creamier consistency, bring two ounces of heavy cream to a boil and blend into the finished sauce. |
