Kneaders caramel syrup

  • 1/2 cup butter, softened (Don’t know why it says softened since you melt it in pan. Also we tried with 1/2 the butter and it tastes great and isn’t as bad for you.)
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp baking soda

Heat an empty medium or large empty stockpot over medium high heat. Make sure the sides of the pot or pan are tall to prevent the syrup from bubbling over.

Melt the butter in the heated pan and stir in the buttermilk and sugar. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil and boil for one minute.

Remove the pan from heat and whisk in the vanilla and baking soda. The mixture will bubble and grow. That’s okay! Keep whisking until the bubbles are gone and the mixture reaches a caramel syrup consistency.

Buttermilk Syrup

  • 3/4 cube butter
  • 1 1/2 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 1/2 tsp Karo syrup
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla

Place butter, sugar, buttermilk, and Karo syrup in saucepan and bring to a boil continually stirring. Once it hits a rolling boil, allow to boil for 3 minutes, constantly stirring. Turn down heat and add baking soda (there will be a reaction, so keep stirring), add vanilla.

Serve warm and enjoy!
