Vanilla Butter Syrup

If you need a quick and easy sweet sauce, for pancakes, or because you were too lazy to use a water bath for your cheesecake and you need to cover up the massive crack in the middle. 🤫 This is it.

Tips

  • You can substitute honey for maple syrup if you prefer, or just leave it out.
  • If you don’t have half n half use milk and cream (half of each funnily enough).
  • This recipe doubles, triples, quadruples nicely. 😉

Ingredients

  • Butter 220 g
  • Brown Sugar 1 cup
  • Half n Half 1.5 cups
  • Baking Soda 0.5 tsp
  • Vanilla Essence 2 Tbsp

Instructions

PRO TIP

Use a big enough saucepan. In case you don’t know, boiling butter and sugar expands and if you paid attention in science, well, baking soda. 🌋

  • Add first 4 ingredients to the saucepan, heat and stir until butter melted and all combined.
  • Once combined turn up heat and bring to the boil.
  • Boil for 5 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat.
  • Add baking soda and whisk quickly.
  • Keep whisking until it looks like it’s no longer a threat to your safety.
  • Add vanilla, whisk until combined.
  • Don’t burn your face off by consuming too soon.
  • Once cooled, poor over the cheesecake to hide your f#$!up or enjoy with Pancakes.
