There is caramel sauce and then there is amaretto caramel sauce of your dreams. This sauce is eat by the spoonful good. So, so good! It gets bonus points for being even simpler than traditional caramel to make and the almond liquor makes it out of this world! I suggest running to the kitchen and promptly making some.
