Coconut Syrup


1/2 c. butter
¾ c. buttermilk
1 c. sugar
½ tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. coconut extract

If you don't have buttermilk, make it!  Add 1 tablespoon white vinegar to 1 cup milk.  Let stand 5 minutes.  Pretty easy.

Place butter, buttermilk and sugar in a medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat until butter melts and sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil and boil one minute.

Remove from heat and add baking soda and extract, stirring constantly. It will bubble up, so if your pot is small, hold it over the sink to avoid spillage. Continue to stir syrup and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve over almost any breakfast food: waffles, pancakes, French toast, crepes, etc.

So I made waffles to day for all the boys since they were going golfing.  BIG hit.  It would be yummy on ice cream!!
