Pine Nut-Orange Caramel Sauce

Recipe Ingredients

2 cups	396g / 13oz	Sugar
1/2 cup	118ml	Orange juice
1/2 cup	118ml	Whipping cream
3 tablespoons	45ml	Butter
2/3 cup	157ml	Sour cream
2/3 cup	157ml	Toasted pine nuts
1 tablespoon	15ml	Finely-minced orange peel - (orange part only)

Recipe Instructions

Cook sugar and orange juice in heavy medium saucepan over low heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and boil without stirring until syrup turns deep golden brown, brushing down sides of pan with wet pastry brush and swirling pan occasionally, about 15 minutes; mixture will be foamy.

Add cream and butter (mixture will bubble) and whisk until smooth. Whisk over medium heat until mixture thickens slightly and is deep caramel color, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Whisk in sour cream. Stir in pine nuts. Let cool 5 minutes.

Mix in orange peel. Cool until just warm. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over low heat before serving.)

This recipe yields about 2 1/2 cups.
