SAVOURY AMARETTO CREAM SAUCE



Savoury Amaretto Cream Sauce image

A lovely sauce for pasta and chicken (or whatever you may like). Not for dieters, but worth every calorie! I love amaretto and looked high and low for a sauce recipe. I couldn't find any on Zaar that fit the bill so this one was created based on the few that I found from other online sources. It does not have an overwhelmingly amaretto flavour, but you will detect a hint of sweetness. Smells divine! Note: Cook time is approximate and your yield may vary, depending on how much you let it reduce after each addition.
