Pecan Sauce

When you have a kitchen crammed with family, excitement building for the upcoming festivities, this is a nice way to top those homemade pancakes or waffles.

• 1/2 cup butter
• 2 cups dark brown sugar
• 1/2 cup whipping cream (naturally!!)
• 1 tb sp. fresh lemon juice
• 1/4 + cup of chopped pecans
• 1 tsp. pure vanilla

Melt the butter in a double boiler or heavy bottom pot. Blend the sugar into the butter.   Whisk in the cream until well blended. Stir in the lemon juice.

Cook for about 45 minutes over simmering water, stirring occasionally.

Serve hot. This makes about 2 cups. Increase ingredients as needed for your crowd.  You’re gonna love this one.
