Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup butter sliced into tablespoon portions
- ½ cup milk
- 1 ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
Instructions
- Place the sugar in the sacepan. Turn heat onto medium-low.
- Allow the sugar to melt, it will start to melt around the edges. Stir gently, allowing the sugar to melt evenly.
- Once the sugar is almost completely melted, it will be an amber color, add the butter.
- Whisk in the milk gradually, it will bubble and boil.
- Bring to a rolling boil (see note) and boil for 2 minutes.
- Off heat, add baking soda and cinnamon.
- Whisk to mix together, the syrup will bubble and foam vigorously.
- Let rest for a few minutes to let the foam settle down.
- Serve warm or cold.
- Store in an airtight container (like a mason jar) in the fridge, reheating and stirring before use to melt and combine.

Notes
- A 2.5 quart saucepan is the smallest size you will want to use for this recipe. It will bubble and foam up quite a bit once the baking soda is added.
- A rolling boil is a boil that does not break even when you stir the liquid. It will take about 5 minutes to get the mixture to a rolling boil. I set a timer for the 2 minute boil step.
