How much whiskey to be used? Seems that is missing from the recipe list. And is there a preference as to what kind?
That’s 2 tablespoons of whiskey, I corrected that in the recipe card for you. The whisky is optional, but it does add a nice kick!
Made this last year for an office potluck left out the alcohol. And everyone loved it..They signed me up for our Halloween potluck this year and even said they’d buy all the ingredients..lol
Such an easy one to make right? We love this recipe too, in fact we made it last night ourselves!
We doubled the recipe, but used 1/2 the honey in the recipe and more siracha. It was a hit and the Christmas Eve party.
Merry Christmas Jennifer! Glad you liked the recipe!
Made this recipeas part of a Girls’ Night/Personal Brifal shower. Loved by all including the husbands hanging out in the man cave. Definitely using for my annual bash with with the ladies!!
Thanks so much for letting me know Yvonne! It’s such an easy recipe too, right?
These sound amazing. I think I’m going to try these as a Super Bowl party snack. (Though I’ll be using beef kielbasa for kosher reasons)
That will work perfectly, thanks Craig!
Marissa, yes, it’s totally OK to leave the whiskey out. It adds a good flavor to the sauce but it’ll be just fine without it. We’re having it on Saturday for Halloween too – Have fun!
These look great! I think I will take them for a Halloween parry on Saturday! Just wondering though, would it be okay to just leave out the Whiskey? We will be in mixed company.
