Thomas isn’t a maple kind of man, so when I saw this recipe on my friend, Erin’s blog, I knew it was a must try. Well friends… it’s a keeper. It was so buttery and divine. I have to restrain my self from drinking it straight! It would be good on just about anything. Really.
Buttermilk Syrup
1/2 cup butter (not margarine people…)
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 cup sugar
1 t. baking soda
1 t. vanilla
In a large saucepan heat butter, milk, and sugar over medium heat. Bring to a boil and boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat and whisk in soda and vanilla. The mixture will get big and foamy… stir a little more when the foam goes down. Serve hot over anything that you can think of. The syrup thickens as it cools…
I’m REALLY excited to try this one! Although, I’m not sure what the difference between butter and margarine are? Soft and cubed right? Lol
Someone (maybe Uncle Russ) in Ben’s family makes this. We had it at a family reunion, and I have to totally agree… it is divine! AND worth the calories 😉
Holy cow- homemade buttermilk syrup is one of the greatest pleasures in life. We had it at a company picnic once and had to make some ourselves- so good.
