Grand Marnier Cream

Directions

1Combine water and sugar in heavy 1-quart saucepan and stir to dissolve sugar. Bring to boiling point over high heat and let boil without stirring for exactly 5 minutes.

2Meanwhile, beat egg yolks with electric mixer until thick and lemon colored. Carefully add hot syrup in thin stream, continuing to beat until cool. Add Grand Marnier.

3In separate bowl whip cream until thickened but not stiff. Fold half the cream into yolk mixture, then fold in remaining cream.
