Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the brown sugar, water, salt, and corn syrup. Bring the sugar mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer the maple syrup mixture, frequently stirring, until the sugar has dissolved and the syrup is thick about 6–8 minutes.
  2. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and unsalted butter until melted (if using). Allow the syrup to rest for 10 minutes before serving, or cool it to room temperature before storing it in an airtight container.
