Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 5 tbsp butter unsalted
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Bring sugar, syrup and butter to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until the sauce darkens, about 5 minutes. 
  • Add condensed milk and stir continuously as you bring to a boil. Boil for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  • Take off the heat and add vanilla. Let cool- it will noticeably thicken up even more. 
  • Store in the refrigerator for up to one month. If it lasts that long…. Enjoy!
