Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 1 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and water.
Stir the mixture over medium heat until the sugars fully dissolve, about 2-3 minutes.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to prevent it from burning.
Reduce the heat to low and let the syrup simmer for 5 minutes to slightly thicken.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in vanilla extract, butter, and salt until fully incorporated.
Let the syrup cool for a few minutes before serving. The syrup will thicken slightly as it cools.
Store any leftover syrup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently before serving.
