Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup butter cut into cubes
- 2 tablespoons corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large saucepan (at least 3 quarts), combine the sugar, buttermilk, butter, corn syrup, and baking soda and stir to combine.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently, then reduce the heat to low. You want to make sure that it is still bubbling. Cook, stirring frequently, until the syrup becomes a rich, golden brown, about 10 minutes*.
- Remove the syrup from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
- Serve the syrup warm. It will start to firm up as it cools, so heat as needed to loosen the syrup.
Notes
*This time will depend on how dark you want your syrup. Elevation will also make a difference. I live at a higher altitude, so it takes my syrup a little longer than 10 minutes.
